How to be Safe from Smog in Winter

SMOG has been observed in various parts of Pakistan. This smog can damage eyes, lungs and skin if proper care isn't taken. The phenomenon of SMOG is mostly due in part to farmers burning their crops to ready them for the next season. Shifting winds from India serve as a contributory factor as their farmers are also following the same practice. This phenomenon has mostly been observed in Punjab and KPK. The lack of rain is adding to this effect. To protect yourself and your family, please adopt the following measures:
1. Limit exposure to outdoors.
2. Drink plenty of water.
3. Cover faces with masks.
4. Keep your doors and windows closed.
5. Upon returning from outside, wash face and limbs and gently rinse the eyes.
6. Get your vehicles inspected and rectify unnecessary emissions.
7. Keep your surroundings clean and pick up after other people if necessary. It may be someone else disgraceful act but it is OUR society.
