This image shows a high concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5), a significant air pollutant concern, over Bangkok. Vehicular emissions, industrial activities, construction dust, and agricultural burning contributes to the high levels of PM2.5 pollution the city experiences. These tiny particles can penetrate deep into the respiratory system, leading to a range of health issues, including respiratory and cardiovascular problems. The Government of Thailand and local authorities are implementing measures to mitigate PM2.5 pollution, such as promoting emissions controls, encouraging public transportation, and raising awareness about the importance of air quality.

We can create the new method to produce electricity in Thailand. The "Hydro Floating Solar Hybrid" can produce electricity around 25 megawatts and is located at Srinakarin Dam, Kanjanaburi, Thailand. Then, we can add value from the water in the dam and this will help to create new dams in Thailand.
