My mother suffers from sinus issues. When we visit our grandparents in India, I have seen her symptoms flare up resulting in frequent sneezing. I learned that poor air quality is the main reason. I have seen her use a Neti Pot to cleanse her nostrils in addition to practicing breathing exercises during her yoga sessions. I can understand why she encouraged us to volunteer for tree planting at the nearby parks in the US. Air Quality Index (AQI) in Coimbatore was 50 vs 22 in Seattle. Having witnessed the adverse health impact from pollution, I am committed to learning more about initiatives to improve air quality and becoming an advocate.
