A report says the air is very dirty. Only seven countries in the world have safe air in 2023.

The report takes information from 30,000 places. It shows that many places have dirty air. It can be bad for people’s health. Among the countries with clean air were Australia, Estonia, and Finland. Iceland had the cleanest air in Europe. Countries with the worst air are Bangladesh, Pakistan, and China.

Some places get better. But many still have problems with pollution. It is important to solve these problems quickly. People are sick from bad air.

Difficult words: dirty (not clean), pollution (dirty air, water or soil).
