A health expert details India’s public health crisis caused by air pollution, highlighting the severe and disproportional impact on children whose developing organs and cognitive abilities are at high risk. The discussion covers the inadequacy of individual protective measures and advocates for large-scale, collective government action, similar to national initiatives like the Swachh Bharat and Jal Jeevan missions, to ensure clean air for all citizens. The expert states, ‘don’t address air pollution. We’re going to have an unhealthy population and we’re going to lose that demographic dividend’. The bulletin also explores the link between pollution and a rising incidence of chronic conditions such as lung cancer in non-smokers, heart disease, and diabetes, framing the issue as a critical threat to India’s economic future and the health of its young population.
