"China Airpocalypse" it is called by many - Comments?

[cc]

OK. With a relatively small amount of time spent in China, I'm not expert on the area at all.



This is Aljazeera talking so take it for what it is worth. But current conditions are know to be serious. Comments from those who know the region most welcomed



http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/101east/2013/12/china-airpocalypse-2013129105135331303.html">China Airpocalypse : As air pollution hits toxic levels, China counts the human cost of its rapid economic growth.



In January 2013, a dense yellow fog shrouded northern China in one of the most alarming incidents of air pollution on record.



Readings of the smallest - and deadliest - airborne particles soared to nearly 40 times recommended safety levels. Residents were warned to stay indoors; expats dubbed it the "Airpocalypse"; and Chinese media were given unprecedented freedom to report on the toxic air conditions.



For many Chinese, it brought a stark realisation of how hazardous air pollution had become, but the worst may still be ahead. A Deutsche Bank report released in February said the current trends of coal use and automobile emissions suggest air pollution could worsen by an additional 70 percent by 2025. In China's five northwestern provinces alone, carbon dioxide emissions from coal production are predicted to rise by 1,400 million tonnes by 2015, an amount equal to Russia's entire national output in 2010.

Ms. cc li tarte, I have relatives working on the mainland and they have said some days they cough the air is so bad..



Time will tell how the cost to the health of people will have on China's long term prospects.

CC, China has deviated somewhat from the Asian tiger growth model. I mean they all started out with authoritarian governments, targeted key industries and pursued high growth rates. However, China is hardly Singapore or Korea. It is a massive chunk of real estate. The energy and environmental policies in those countries are not automatically transferable to a country wit 1.4 billion people.



China is the most polluted country I have ever seen and if anything it has gotten much worse since I left there 20 years ago. What China should be doing is retrofitting all those disgusting coal-fired power plants and buying LNG from BC. If the fucking West Coast greenies actually gave a fuck about the environment instead of money they would be getting on board with that.

You see Fash, humor and over the top exaggeration are effective hard hitting tools to hit racist stereotypes with. Also, making fun of one's own self can effectively demonstrate how silly  stereotypes are ... while recognizing that some  traits are common to different groups.
