A group of Indian women wear pollution masks arrive to a protest against air pollution in New Delhi, India, Sunday, November 6, 2016. Even for a city considered one of the worlds dirtiest, the Indian capital hit a new low this week. Air so dirty you can taste and smell it; a gray haze that makes a gentle stroll a serious health hazard. According to one advocacy group, government data shows that the smog that enveloped the city midweek was the worst in the last 17 years. The concentration of PM2.5, tiny particulate pollution that can clog lungs, averaged 12 times the government norm and a whopping 70 times the WHO standards. (Photo by Manish Swarup/AP Photo)
