00:00You know of the AQI of the place you are at, WHO would say 5 microgram per meter cube is
00:08the safe limit and there we constantly experience 100, 200, even 600. If you experience 100, 150, you say it
00:19is fine.
00:21And that's what the common man gets as a result of the development that benefits mostly the rich.

01:02cars.
01:04You must have parks, you must have roads in the villages, you must have means through which kids, especially girls,
01:13can travel to schools. That's development. Development is not about skyscrapers and the Instagram images that bombard you with lavishness,
01:25though that's what we are made to believe.
01:32You must have access to that as a result of the public transport.
01:33You must have an alternative to a shop. That's a cultural perspective.
01:33You must have a place underneath the door, where you can see the Cannabis.
01:33You must have a place underneath the door, where you can see the people that are made of their hands.
01:34You must have long-term access, where you can see the people that are made of sight, which is a
01:34place that is possible in your country.
