New Delhi, Noting that air pollution is a silent killer, Randeep Guleria, Director at <keyword id="7683594" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="The-All-India-Institute-of-Medical-Sciences">the All India Institute of Medical Sciences</keyword> (<keyword id="40458" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="AIIMS">AIIMS</keyword>), said that it contributes to up to 40 per cent deaths in patients with chronic illnesses and neonatal fatalities. "The global burden disease published in Lancet shows that in 2019, air pollution was the fourth leading cause of mortality and third for disability-adjusted life years. Air pollution is a silent killer which makes it difficult for the policymakers to understand," he said. "We must focus more on the chronic effects of pollution such as diabetes, lower respiratory tract disease, lung cancer, stroke or neonatal deaths - there is enough data to say that around 20 to 40 per cent of deaths in these diseases are caused by air pollution," Guleria said. He was speaking at the second Good Air Summit organised by the Integrated Health &amp; Wellbeing (IHW) Council. Guleria also said that more than smoking tobacco, pollution contributes to developing diseases such as lung cancer, <keyword id="73190" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="COPD">COPD</keyword> and heart disease. "These are acute effects," he added. The AIIMS chief also shared that within a few days of spike in air pollution levels, the influx of patients increased in the hospital's OPDs. "Experience in AIIMS shows that whenever there is a spike in air pollution, the number of patients in OPDs increases in the next 5-6 days," Guleria said. Union Minister for Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Prakash Javadekar, also attended the summit. Accepting that pollution is a sensitive issue and a serious challenge, he expressed hope that the newly-constituted <keyword id="10260083" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="commission-for-air-quality">Commission for Air Quality</keyword> will reduce pollution in the national capital. "We introduced the idea of measuring air quality and brought the concept of AQI. The Sameer app of the Central Pollution Control Board provides hourly update of the national Air Quality Index (AQI). I am hopeful that the Commission for Air Quality Management will reduce pollution further," Javadekar stated. Meanwhile, Kamal Narayan, CEO, IHW, complained that air pollution did not receive the kind of response it required either from the government or the citizens, despite being an evident health emergency. "The data from 'State of Global Air 2020' shows that 1.67 million or 17 lakh people die annually due to air pollution that comes to around 4,700 deaths per day. Which means around half a million more people fell prey to air pollution last year than the number of lives claimed by Covid-19 virus till date, globally. However, despite being a super-killer and an evident health emergency, air pollution did not get the emergency response either from the system, or from the people," he said. Commenting on the issue, Swatanter Kumar, retired Supreme Court judge and former chairperson of <keyword id="2462566" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="The-National-Green-Tribunal">the National Green Tribunal</keyword> (NGT), said that protection of the environment is a constitutional obligation of both the government and the citizens. "Protecting the environment is a constitutional obligation for the citizens and a constitutional duty of the governments. We don't need more laws but better implementation of the existing frameworks. We need holistic, pragmatic and practical solutions for intergenerational equity and examine the sources of cleaner energy as well," he said.

It's united we stand and divided we fall," Romney said.</li></ul>Sen. Mitt Romney did not mince words when he weighed in on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's President's Day pitch to divide the US into red and blue states. "I think Abraham Lincoln dealt with that kind of insanity," Romney told reporters in Utah on Tuesday, per <a href="https://www.sltrib.com/news/politics/2023/02/21/mitt-romney-says-marjorie-taylor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Salt Lake Tribune</a>. "We're not going to divide the country. It's united we stand and divided we fall."Romney also alleged that fringe members of the GOP are using crazy ideas like secession as a cynical way to grift money from their supporters."There are some people in my party and the other party that say things to try and get a headline and get people to send them money. And that happens to be in today's 'loony left,' or I should say 'loony right,'" Romney said, per The Salt Lake Tribune. The congresswoman responded to Romney's jab in an interview with the <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/washington-secrets/mtg-to-critic-mitt-romney-so-bad-so-uninspiring" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington Examiner on Wednesday.</a>"Mitt Romney is so bad I couldn't even vote for him for president against Barack Obama," Greene told the outlet.Greene on Monday <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/representative-marjorie-taylor-greene-split-united-states-congress-twitter-2023-2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made the suggestion that the US needs "a national divorce."</a> According to Greene, this would involve the US getting broken up into "red states and blue states." "From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat's traitorous America Last policies, we are done," Greene <a href="https://twitter.com/mtgreenee/status/1627665203398688768" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">tweeted.</a>She <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/mtg-defends-call-split-up-us-says-civil-war-looming-2023-2">doubled down</a> on her suggestion to split the US in two during <a href="https://twitter.com/RepMTG/status/1628238217714466824?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">an appearance on Fox News on Tuesday,</a> claiming without substantiation that the US is heading towards a civil war and that a pre-emptive split is necessary. "The last thing I ever want to see in America is a civil war. No one wants that — at least everyone I know would never want that — but it's going that direction, and we have to do something about it," she said."Our ideas, our policies and our ways of life have become so far apart that it's just coming to that point," she added.Splitting into two countries did not prevent the last US civil war in 1861, when fighting broke out after a series of southern states broke away to form the Confederate States of America in the hope of preserving slavery.Greene's idea for a national divorce has also received pushback from other members of her party. Utah Gov. Spencer Cox called the Georgia congresswoman's call to break up the United States "evil" and "destructive." "We don't need a divorce, we need marriage counseling. And we need elected leaders that don't profit by tearing us apart," Cox <a href="https://twitter.com/SpencerJCox/status/1627711932060020737?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweeted.</a>Representatives for Romney and Greene did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.

With the city’s level of air quality walking the tightrope between “poor” and “abysmal” and a government that seems incapable of implementing any effective measures to improve it, the National Green Tribunal (NGT), a special tribunal focusing on environmental issues, has finally decided to take some action. Yesterday, the NGT slapped a fine of ₹250 million on the state government of Delhi, which is run by the Aam Aadmi Party, citing its failure to curb pollution, according to the Press Trust of India. The move followed the submission of a compliance affidavit by the Delhi government which the tribunal deemed insufficient. In response, the Delhi government has reportedly said that its dealing with a problem that’s largely the result of activities that do not take place within its jurisdiction. While this is true of the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/indian-govt-on-back-foot-as-stubble-burning-worsens-air-pollution-in-the-national-capital/articleshow/66235837.cms">crop burning </a>in neighbouring states, the government has failed to take action against polluters within city lines. The case was triggered by the submission of a plea by residents of the city that related to the operation of illegal smelters and units burning plastic and leather on Delhi’s outskirts. The Delhi government was meant to take action against these units a while ago, and has hence, been instructed to submit an action plan to the NGT with the names of the officers and civic organisations responsible for carrying out anti-pollution work in the city and the reasons for their ineffectiveness. The bench deliberating on the issue, which was led by NGT Chairperson Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel, said that the Delhi government would have to hand over ₹250 million to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), an anti-pollution agency housed under the environment ministry. It has suggested that the Delhi government, which is in the middle of a <a href="https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/kejriwal-vs-centre-over-mcd-mha-says-can-t-release-more-funds-delhi-has-rs-790-crore-1359339-2018-10-09">funding crunch</a>, pay for the fine by deducting the salaries of government officials tasked with implementing anti-pollution measures and by fining polluters. The CPCB will then use the funds to implement its own pollution control measures. The AAP will also have to furnish a performance guarantee for the fine in a month, which will be encashed if the amount isn’t submitted in three months. In its defence, the AAP has been trying to implement steps to improve the city’s air quality although it will likely be a while before any discernible improvement takes place. Earlier this week, it slapped <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/delhi-govt-imposes-fine-of-rs-50-000-each-on-contractors-for-dust-pollution-118120100639_1.html">fines on construction companies</a> for violation of <keyword id="55910" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Air-Pollution">air pollution</keyword> norms.

India’s top environmental tribunal has ordered the Delhi government to pay ₹250 million to the national pollution control agency so it can tackle the city’s air problem

While the obvious thing to do when a city is quite literally gasping for clean air is to plant more trees, India’s capital city is set to lose around <a href="https://www.firstpost.com/india/delhis-tree-cover-losing-battle-to-shoddy-reports-on-environment-poor-compliance-of-compensatory-afforestation-norms-4591141.html">16,500 trees</a> to make room for government accommodations and a commercial project. The project that will be developed by government-run National Building Construction Corporation India Limited (NBCC) requires chopping off thousands of trees in seven residential colonies in <keyword id="6361054" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="south-Delhi">South Delhi</keyword> - <keyword id="99794" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sarojini-Nagar">Sarojini Nagar</keyword>, Nauroji Nagar, Netaji Nagar, Thyagraj Nagar, Mohammadpur, Kasturba Nagar and Sriniwaspuri. On hearing about this plan, annoyed citizens, on Sunday, came out in <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/delhiites-join-green-activists-in-protest-against-cutting-of-16500-trees/articleshow/64720768.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">droves</a> brandishing placards to urge authorities to stop this project. And in what is perhaps being seen as a small victory, the <keyword id="6355014" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="delhi-high-court">Delhi High Court</keyword> today put the felling on hold till the next hearing on 04 July. The court was hearing a petition filed by an orthopaedic surgeon K Mishra to stop the central government project. A separate petition has been filed by an NGO, with the <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/housing-plan-ngo-moves-green-tribunal-to-save-trees/articleshow/64688998.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">National Green Tribunal</a> (NGT) seeking directions for quashing the environmental clearances for these projects. That case will be heard on 02 July. NBCC claims they will be planting 10 times the number of trees they chop down - supposedly in a location 30 km from where they will be felled. But activists believe the void created by chopping off trees at one location cannot be filled by planting trees at a whole other location. Trees basically act as a shield from dust storms, something Delhi has been experiencing quite often of late. The fact that trees help reduce pollution is something we're taught since school anyway. There is, however, some amount of ambiguity about whether the NBCC has permissions to cut the trees from the forest department, and if so, for how many trees. The <a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/delhi-news/16-500-trees-a-huge-price-for-south-delhi-s-redevelopment-projects/story-YOIim13uN0VfMe441XRv9K.html" data-type="tilCustomLink">environmental impact assessment report</a> for the projects in South Delhi cited that 11,000 trees were to be felled in Sarojini Nagar. However, the <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/delhi/delhi-state-forest-dept-had-rejected-plan-to-cut-11000-trees-in-sarojini-nagar-5231920/">Indian Express </a>reported that the proposal to fell these trees has repeatedly been rejected by the Delhi Forest Department. After the first proposal was rejected, the NBCC revised the number to 606 trees and this too was rejected. For now, the NBCC has permission to cut 4,695 trees in total while 1,213 more will be translocated inside the project area. The earlier proposals were rejected on the grounds of ‘inadequate data for compensatory plantation.’ Relentless, NBCC is now working on a yet another revised proposal.
