Curious why this is here. It was my go to source for AQI data when I was living in Beijing, and I believe it is a Chinese site but the only evidence I have for that is that they have good Chinese data and the CN after AQI in their name. Beijing has cleaned up slot but I’m surprised to see bad air still in Hebei and Shandong.

Reckoning by the way some national borders are different on the map, the nationalismity of the website is indeed not in doubt. In particular looking at the Himalayas.

It must be so tiring to have to toe such lines (or to toe the not-a-line! ...) in every serious endeavour I'm sorry for the people working on this good useful site.

Why? It’s useful it’s useful, it’s definitely useful in China. India has issues for sure with AQI, and China still has lots of problems obviously that they are making progress on.

There's plenty of crowd sourced data including from their own Gaia stations they ship to people in Europe as well.

Why shouldn't this be here?

It just didn’t seem to be front page worthy but was there this morning.
