        Having just returned from Delhi, I was surprised people carried on as normal. No pollution masks or protection - how do we induce behavioural changes?

        There's two types there - 1) who genuinely think it's just fog that comes every year with the winter setting in 2) who know it's smog but find it unfashionable to wear it

        We are visiting the area now and in Agra and we are told it is due to seasonal due to temp changes and regular rice paddie burning after the harvest in the North. The government here could legislate and end to that as a start but local farmers will need help clearing fields.

        Very worrisome. Long term CV effects well established. But what can be done?
