We build a house by the bricks but we make a home by our hearts. Right

So, a city is built by the machinery, tools and construction material. But a green city is built by your love for the environment. It means building a city without harming the environment. It ensures full environmental care.

A city already built should also be converted into a green city. Countries in the western world are making their cities green and clean. Here in the eastern part of the world we yet to build green cities and towns.

The western world is quite familiar with the idea of a green city. In the developing and least-developed world it is still a vague idea. Here people don’t have much awareness about green living. They have several other problems to first solve for their very survival. These problems range from poverty alleviation to maintaining law and order.

It means higher sustainability, lower poverty levels. They need awareness about this fact. First, their leadership should be aware of the significance of a green city.

Now your cell phone would let you know the level of air pollution

How much gases of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane etc are in the air that you are inhaling? You don’t know the level of air pollution around you. That is why you are under direct attack of the lethal effects of the harmful gases present in excess of the permissible limits in the ambient air. You can’t take put a mask over your nose and mouth all the time to sieve the air before its inhale. You just have to compromise over this situation with simply contributing your role to mitigate the level of gaseous emissions by going green as much as possible.

Research under process

But now a research is going on in San Diego, USA to invent a handy device fixable in your mobile phone to let you know the level of air pollution around you. This new system is called Citisense which is being researched with significant success. The research over this system is being made under the leadership of a professor of computer science in San Diego. The sensor which would detect the level of air quality in your surrounding has already been tested by a group of people. The result of the testing showed that air is contaminated more where it has higher traffic load.
