Can you name the world capital with the worst air quality on earth? Here`s a hint: it`s not in China. It`s in Southern Asia, the nation of India, it`s New Delhi. Last year, the World Health Organization labeled New Delhi the most polluted capital city. This month, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi instituted a new program. It will monitor air quality in ten Indian cities. It will track their pollution levels and label cities green for cleaner air and red for dirtier air. It`s intended to help the public see and take action in response to high pollution levels. India`s leader says he`s trying to change the international view that India doesn`t care about the environment.
