Who pays for this

Since I have been living in the valley, I always feel like I'm living in a room filled with smoke and an unpleasant smell.

I just feel like I could never breathe any fresh air if I lived here.

Because of this pollution and dewiness Kathmandu valley doesn't flatter me now.

The amount of risk we're taking every day just by breathing this air is huge.

Who is going to pay for this? Obviously, it's me and all of us so why can't we create a good environment to at least breathe fresh air? When will that day come when Kathmandu will again give me joy? On an everyday basis our environment is killing us if the government could manage these vehicles that give black smoke, then at some level, nature would be good to us.

"खुला ठाउँमा फोहोर जलाउँदा निस्कने धुवाँले वायु प्रदूषण बढाउँदै मानव स्वास्थ्य र वातावरणमा नकारात्मक असर पारिरहेको छ।"

यस तस्वीरमा सार्वजनिक स्थानमा फोहोर जलाइएको देखिन्छ, जसबाट निस्किएको धुवाँ आसपासको क्षेत्रमा फैलिरहेको छ। फोहोर, विशेषगरी प्लास्टिक तथा अन्य मिश्रित सामग्री जलाउँदा विषाक्त ग्यास र
