Keep a smog-season ambient air diary in Township from a fixed public vantage (2026-07-18)

Lahore regularly ranks among the world's most polluted cities during its November-to-February smog season, driven by vehicle emissions, industry, and regional crop-residue burning. A simple photo-and-notes air diary from a fixed public vantage builds a real, standing record of how bad conditions get, neighborhood by neighborhood. Standard: WHO Global Air Quality Guidelines + SDG 11.6 (urban air quality). Proof: Weekly photo + written air-condition diary from a fixed public vantage Method (WHO Global Air Quality Guidelines + SDG 11.6 (urban air quality).): 1. Stand at a fixed public vantage point in the same spot each visit. 2. Photograph visible haze in the same direction each visit. 3. Record the date, time, and a plain-language visibility description. 4. Note whether outdoor activity is visibly discouraged that day. 5. Submit the photos and notes as your proof. Done when: Weekly photo + written air-condition diary from a fixed public vantage

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 45–90 minutes. Method of record: EPA NAAQS community ambient-air screening (PM2.5)

Bring

• calibrated PM2.5 monitor
• GPS phone
• wind/weather note source
• hi-vis vest
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Choose >=3 points (near-source/roadside, mid, background); record GPS at each; stay off the roadway.
2. 2. Photograph each monitoring location.
3. 3. Log PM2.5 (ug/m3) at each point over a comparable peak period.
4. 4. Record wind direction, time, and nearby source activity (e.g., truck traffic).
5. 5. Compare readings to the NAAQS reference.
6. 6. Enter the PM2.5 logs, wind/time, source note, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Roadside work near heavy traffic -> stay off travel lanes; hi-vis at all times.
• Near-source PM2.5 well above background and NAAQS -> flag an environmental-justice exposure concern.

What counts as done

• PM2.5 logged at >=3 points (near-source / mid / background)
• Wind direction + time recorded
• Source-activity observation recorded
• GPS waypoints + location photos

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
