New Delhi: Stubble burning in Punjab caused emissions of 6,800.97 thousand tonnes of greenhouse gases and particulate matter between September 15 and November 2 this year as against 6,075.11 thousand tonnes of pollutants released last year during the same period, according to Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI).
Experts said Punjab recorded more fire counts and the intensity of burning was almost the same as last year. However, there was no data on how much pollutants were transported to Delhi as it depends on wind direction and speed.
