SmogRank / History / week of March 6, 2023
Most polluted cities, week of March 6, 2023
1,184 cities ranked by their average PM2.5 over the 7 days; the worst was Gevgelija, North Macedonia, at 36.7 µg/m³. A city needs measurements on 70% of the days to be ranked.
OpenAQ's archive, where our readings come from, has almost none for 7 of these 7 days. Cities in the United States and Europe have them from the EPA's and the European Environment Agency's own records of the same monitors; many cities elsewhere are missing from this board, not clean. Why.
