100 Most Polluted Cities (2024)

Air pollution is the second leading global risk factor for death--and by World Health Organization standards, 99% of the world lives in areas they do not recommend for breathing. This quiz requires you to utilize Air Quality Index data (of which measures PM2.5 emissions) and name the 100 most polluted cities!

HINT: I would definitely look at a map of the Greater Delhi/National Capital Region before taking this quiz.
