Gurgaon Society Uses Artificial Rain to Combat Pollution
A fancy housing society in Gurgaon, India, is using special sprinklers on their rooftops to make tiny rain clouds.
This is to help clean the air and make it easier to breathe.
They say it works really well in their area, but some people on the internet are not happy.
They think it's a silly idea and that the society should be doing other things to help the environment, like planting more trees.
Some people also worry that the tiny rain might make the air even worse to breathe.
This isn't the first time a society in Gurgaon has tried this.
Another one did something similar last year and said it's important for everyone to work together to fix the pollution problem.
Central Park Resorts in Gurgaon uses rooftop sprinklers to create artificial rain.
The initiative aims to lower the Air Quality Index (AQI) within the society's premises.
The society claims the local AQI remains below 100 while the rest of the city struggles with higher pollution levels.
Internet users criticize the initiative, calling it ineffective and a waste of water.
A similar initiative was implemented by DLF Primus Society in November 2024.
