Rajasthan CM Sharma, Union Min Bhupender Yadav attend International Clean Air Day event at JECC

Jaipur: Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma and Union Minister Bhupender Yadav on Saturday attended the International Clean Air Day event at Jaipur International Convention Centre (JECC).
Addressing the event, Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma said, " Air pollution is a big issue today across the world which is affecting the health of human beings. I want to put some pointers before you: before causing pollution, we need to think, because its responsibility of all of us. One should think about the pollution that is caused by the number of cars you own. Do we carry out plantation against the pollution caused by cars?
CM Sharma said, "Mother Earth gives us everything so we should also learn to give something back."
During this event, Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma said, "A clean air campaign is being run in 131 cities. We also started it on the inspiration of the Prime Minister. We have planted 7 crore saplings in the state. I would like to thank Sanjay Sharma ji. With his support, this campaign of planting 7 crore saplings has been successful. Mother Earth gives us everything, we should also learn to give something. We should think about tampering with nature.
"If someone is causing pollution, then we should stop him. Clean air means our nature, as it is very important for our body. These small things are very useful. On this occasion, it is important to understand the small things. We need to make a joint effort on air pollution with immediate effect. 46 Continuous Air Quality Monitoring Systems have been started. Efforts are being made for air quality survey. 1000 electric machines will be started for air pollution control," said Sharma.
Meanwhile, the world marked the fifth annual International Day of Clean Air for blue skies today with calls for investment in clean air solutions now, as air pollution causes increasing public health, environmental, and economic harms. More than 99 percent of humanity is now breathing polluted air, leading to more than 8 million annual deaths, including more than 700,000 children under five.
Dirty air disproportionately affects more vulnerable populations such as women, children and older people. Air pollution has become the second leading risk factor for early death globally, overtaking tobacco for adults and second only to malnutrition for children under five.
