AQI in Phnom Penh - Should You Be Worried About Air Pollution?

I'm arming myself with an air quality monitor and hitting the streets of Phnom Penh to find out what the AQI is in various neighbourhoods of the city. Air quality in Phnom Penh varies from month to month. In Thailand and Cambodia rice farmers often burn their fields after harvest to clear what is left of the rice crops. This burning causes pollution and AQI numbers to shoot up. The deadly PM2.5 particles that are small enough to get into your blood stream are the biggest threat. However, PM10 in Phnom Penh is also very unpleasant causing runny noses, itchy eyes, headaches, and more. I'll tell you all about it as I cruise around in the bad air like an idiot.

Big thanks to Temtop for sending me the air quality monitor that I use in the video. If you want to get your own, follow this link, and use the promo code: TEMTOP26 to save yourself 10%
