Today Bangkok air quality is classified as "airpocalypse" with 664 AQI as shown at https://air.plumelabs.com/air-quality-in-Bangkok-6KFg

This means immediate and heavy effects on everybody, do not eat outside, do not do sports outside, do not take the baby outside.

This has been part of the OP.

And you are saying: 

Some of the members have been running every Saturday for 30 years.

If their mouth/throat gets contaminated with PM 2.5/10 particles they wash them away with beer. 

Is this advertising? Or just for fun? Or 'stating facts'?

Memories?

Of nine northern provinces, eight have been declared as strict burn-free areas.

1 Chiang Mai has forbidden burning from January 10 to April 30.

2 Phrae has announced a strict ban on burning from February 1 to April 30.

3 Nan province has banned burning from February 15 to April 15.

4. Phayao, Tak, Lamphun, and Lampang provinces have been declared absolute no-burning areas from March 1 to April 30.

5 Mae Hong Son is strictly forbidding fires from March 15 to April 30.

Chiang Rai is monitoring the trend of disaster situations to issue guidelines on no-burn zones later.

Perhaps it's only the advent of the internet and social media that has made it a modern day urban panic?

I don't think so.

The majority of the audience is neither interested nor panicking.

They just don't pay attention.

Hasn't toxic air/smog been a fact of life throughout the world's cities since the Industrial Revolution?

Oh yes.

And there has been done a lot. Thanks to Wikipedia I will copy some photos   1966  NYC Smog

The 1966 New York smog served as a historical precedent for air pollution in China in the 2010s (pictured in Beijing in early 2013).

 Smog in May 1973.

By 1972 New York City had cut levels of sulfur dioxide and particulates by half from their peak.

It's really worrying, five northern cities in Thailand's Top Ten,

today at 16:00.  -  If we include Mae Sot, Tak then six.

Yes.

But it's not a question of believe.

aqicn.org and iqair.com showed almost the same. Both wrong?

Once again, ventusky is a wonderful site, but it works with computer models

and projections.

Now it's 14:38 ICT.  Have a look at ventusky.com - today at 4 AM, 10 AM, 4 PM.

Chiang Mai AQI at 175

It's bad, Forza. But perhaps not only the farmers?

May I suggest

The planned plants are not interesting today, only in 2025.

But there is Hongsa, Mae Moh and Mae Sot already.

Permanently (?) polluting the air.
