📊 Explore my latest dashboard for an in-depth analysis of Dhaka's air quality, currently holding the rank as the most polluted city in the globe 🌏. Historically recognized as one of the most pollution-burdened cities, Dhaka confronts severe environmental hurdles. This detailed analysis brings to light the severity of the circumstances, with a startling peak AQI of 598 in 2023 😷.

Here are some key takeaways from the data:

▶ The dashboard tracks the AQI from 2020 to the present, highlighting times when air quality reached to 'Very Unhealthy' and 'Hazardous' levels 🔴.
▶ Dhaka endured 133 'Unhealthy' days, a distressing 82 'Very Unhealthy' days, 18 'Hazardous' days, and notably, not a single 'Good' air quality day 🚫🌿, emphasizing the persistent air quality crisis.
▶ A seasonal breakdown shows a winter surge in pollutants and a monsoon phase that offers a brief window of cleaner air🌦️.
▶ The data also sheds light on nighttime pollution peaks, influenced by specific atmospheric conditions and continuous emissions. 🌃💨.
