When you wake up early in the morning. You go outside to breathe fresh air. But instead of fresh air, you feel something burning in your nose and throat. Your eyes start to burn. You see a thick fog mixed with smoke. This is not a normal fog. This is smog.

Smog is a dangerous mix of smoke and fog. It is full of pollution and harmful chemicals. It can make people sick. It is a big problem in many cities in Punjab. But now, you don’t have to stay silent. You can raise your voice. The Punjab Government has launched a new mobile app called Green Punjab. With this app, any person can report smog-related problems in just a few seconds!
