This story pertains to India's telecom poster child. Growth of which has been synonymous to "India Shining". It has an office routing billions of mobile calls, right next to the Arabian sea, on Marine Drive Mumbai.
And in a series of mysterious failures in the systems, the out come turned out to be what you see in this picture. The air quality. The amount of sulfur in the polluted sea shore of thickly populated and industrialized Mumbai is 6 times more than that of WHO recommended max level. So much so, that the copper wires running in the system boards turn in to copper sulfate over a few months.
Here comes the funny part. The execs of this company are screaming at all system vendors to replace the systems. But no one is talking about rescuing their employees from the same offices. Their own employees breathing the air that can destroy metal stored in air conditioned labs !!
