How much forest has Bhiwāni lost?
There was almost no forest around Bhiwāni in 2000, so there has been almost nothing to lose since. Only fairly dense woodland counts as forest in these maps, so scattered street and garden trees don't show up here.

These figures cover everything within 10 km of the city center, a wider area than the report above, because forest is usually lost at a city's edges.

Frequently asked
Questions about Bhiwāni
What is the air quality (AQI) in Bhiwāni right now?
The latest reading for Bhiwāni shows an AQI of 194 (Unhealthy), measured Nov 11, 19:15 local time by the H.B. Colony, Bhiwani - HSPCB ground monitoring station, 1.5 km away, via OpenAQ. The main pollutant is PM2.5. Everyone should limit long outdoor exertion; sensitive groups more so.
Is it safe to exercise outside in Bhiwāni today?
At AQI 194 (Unhealthy): everyone should cut down long or hard exercise; sensitive groups should avoid it. Windows: keep them closed. Masks: wear an N95 outdoors. The reading changes through the day, so check again before a long run or ride.
What has the air quality in Bhiwāni been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Bhiwāni's daily AQI at 205 on average, from 169 on Nov 7 to an hourly peak of 288 on Nov 5. On 7 of those days the average was above 100, unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Bhiwāni's AQI the same as India's AQI (CPCB)?
No. Airleaf shows the US EPA Air Quality Index (AQI), the scale used by IQAir and most air-quality apps. India's Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) publishes the National Air Quality Index on its own scale: 0–50 good, 51–100 satisfactory, 101–200 moderate, 201–300 poor, 301–400 very poor and 401–500 severe. The two scales don't line up. At moderate fine-particle levels the US scale reads higher: 55 µg/m³ of PM2.5 is 149 on the US AQI but about 92, "satisfactory", on India's. In heavy smog India's reads higher: 100 µg/m³ is 182 on the US AQI and about 232, "poor", on India's. CPCB also averages particles over 24 hours, so its figure moves more slowly than an hourly reading.
How much forest has the area around Bhiwāni lost since 2001?
There was almost no forest around Bhiwāni in 2000, so there has been almost nothing to lose since. Only fairly dense woodland counts as forest in these maps, so scattered street and garden trees don't show up here.

How many more trees does Bhiwāni need?
Bhiwāni needs roughly 88,279 more trees to close a 28-point shortfall against its 40% tree-cover target — about 1,942 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.
How are Bhiwāni's air quality and tree cover measured?
Air quality is measured by ground monitoring stations near M.C.Colony, via OpenAQ; the 7-day trend is the Open-Meteo / CAMS model's estimate. Tree cover is measured from Sentinel-2 L2A (ESA Copernicus) via Earth Search satellite imagery at 10 m detail across a 2 km radius around M.C.Colony; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
