Perfectly timed with the beginning of a new week, the air quality in Beijing is set to take a turn for the worse and stay that way for the next six days. The Municipal Environmental Protection Monitoring Center has issued a warning, saying that six of the capital’s districts will face severe levels of pollution, with the rest being cloaked in moderate levels.
The PM2.5 levels will consistently be between 150-250 and citizens are being encouraged to take precautionary action by wearing masks and not exercising outdoors for prolonged periods. Hopefully we will see a clear weekend, or at least a clean ushering in of April.
