Smog continues to obscure Lahore and its surrounding areas. You can do your part to reduce air pollution. Here is how:
Take care of your cars. Get regular tune-ups and change your car's oil on schedule. Inflating tires to the proper level can improve gas mileage and reduce emissions.
Avoid burning municipal waste.
Plant more trees outdoors. The leaves help catch air pollutants.
Avoid products that release high levels of VOCs. For example, nail polish, perfumes, paint thinner, air fresheners.
Reduce speed and switch on the fog lights to avoid any untoward incident during the haze.
