What is AQI and Why Should You Check It Daily? 🌫️💡

Have you ever stepped outside, breathed in the air, and thought — “Hmm… it feels dusty today!” 😷 That’s probably because the air quality wasn’t great.

Now imagine if there was a tool that could tell you how clean (or polluted) the air is around you — in your city, state, or even another country! 🌍
That magical tool is called the AQI – and it’s already live on our website! 🎉📲

Let’s understand what AQI really means and why it’s super smart to check it every day!


🌈 What is AQI?

AQI stands for Air Quality Index. It is a number scale that shows how clean or polluted the air is around you.
The lower the number, the cleaner the air. The higher the number, the more dangerous it is to breathe.

Here’s how it usually looks:

AQI LevelAir QualityColor CodeHealth Message
0–50Good💚 GreenAir is fresh and safe.
51–100Moderate💛 YellowOkay for most, but not perfect.
101–150Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups🧡 OrangeChildren and elderly should be careful.
151–200Unhealthy❤️ RedEveryone should avoid going out.
201–300Very Unhealthy💜 PurpleDangerous for all. Stay inside.
301–500Hazardous⚫ MaroonExtremely bad. Emergency level!

🧐 Why is AQI Important?

You can’t see air pollution, but you can definitely feel it — headaches, coughing, itchy eyes, or feeling tired for no reason.
That’s why AQI is so helpful. It gives us a warning sign before we step outside.

Here’s what checking the AQI daily can help you with:

  • 🚶‍♀️ Planning outdoor activities (walk, play, sports)
  • 😷 Protecting your lungs on high-pollution days
  • 💧 Avoiding allergy triggers during change of seasons
  • 🧒 Keeping kids and elders safe
  • 📚 Helping with school projects or GK topics too!

🛡️ How to Stay Safe on Bad AQI Days

If the air quality is not good, don’t worry. Here’s what you can do:

  • Wear a mask (not just for COVID anymore!)
  • Stay indoors when AQI is over 150
  • Use air purifying plants like aloe vera or snake plant 🌿
  • Drink lots of water 💧
  • Keep windows closed during high-pollution hours

🧠 Fun Fact

Did you know?
Delhi and Beijing are among the cities that often have AQI levels above 200! 😱
That’s why many schools in Delhi even cancel outdoor classes when the AQI is very high.
