I live in Delhi and it recently hit AQI 1000 - equivalent to smoking 40+ cigarettes daily. Yet people around me still believe you can "build immunity" to air pollution.
Frustrated by this dangerous misconception, I built an open-source tool that translates abstract AQI numbers into metrics people viscerally understand: cigarettes you're unknowingly "smoking" and hours of life lost each day.
Features:
- Real-time conversion of AQI to cigarette equivalents
- Daily life expectancy impact calculation
- Location-based tracking

Looking for feedback to make the health impact even more compelling & additional metrics that could drive awareness
