They need environmentalists. We don't appreciate them often enough. Without them, we have...Bejing.

bwahahahaha! Low cost provider of goods and services? At what price China? Your payments are coming due. I would like to see China break up like the Soviet Union.

[stylin19a]

of course, China is a signatory to the Kyoto protocol, and being an emerging economy...Kyoto doesn't apply.

Hey Kyoto morons.....now what ?

This is one of the few times when governemtn has the legitimate right to get involved in the business of private business because the private business is hurting other private business, including the bodies of private individuals on their own private property.

I am a Libertarian, yet see the need for government oversight of this.

The Olympics should be an interesting event in this venue. Don't look for any record times.

When you base your energy on soft coal there is a down side!

We get some of their crud over here, you can see it as different shades of yellow, brown, or blue when looking toward the Alaska Range from Fairbanks. We also get raw smoke from Mongolia and Indonesia.

I love the smell of freshly made $159 Sneakers in the morning...It smells like....#&$!.

I was there in November. Any amount of physical exertion produced a burning sensation in the lungs. Not pleasant at all.

Red Chinese, yellow China.

This is another reason why all the industrial jobs are going to communist China.

They don't mind poisoning their citizens/slaves as they crank out shoddy garbage for Wal Mart.

And no pesky lawyers or public activists to get in the way either, they just disappear in the middle of the night.

Yeah, communist China a capitalist paradise!

I don't get offended if you want to be removed.

Pay no attention to the smoldering yellow haze smothering the failed socialist state.

I don't see the problem...These American companies couldn't wait to get out of the U.S. of A. fast enough to be free from all these environmental and safety regulations...Now they're free and making busloads of money...

If we can just get rid of precipitators, waste water treatment plants and the County sewage treatment facilities so the companies can go back to dumping that stuff into the lakes and rivers, maybe we can get some of that business back...Lousy regulations anyway...

Doesn't suprise me a bit. The only time I ever saw Hong Kong when flying in was when a typhoon had blown all the pollution out to sea. It's worse in the mainland. 6 months after a building is built, it'll have black pollution streaks down it.

The rivers are BLACK. Not brown, not yellow, BLACK. It's nasty. Dirty country.
