qu1j0t3 | and today | Feb 27 20:36 |
schestowitz | yes,I meant a while back as in hours | Feb 27 20:37 |
schestowitz | I heard about the poisoning, but didn't think it was the major thing except when it comes to ewaste recycling | Feb 27 20:37 |
qu1j0t3 | heh | Feb 27 20:45 |
qu1j0t3 | no, it's a workplace issue -- entirely predictable | Feb 27 20:45 |
qu1j0t3 | the same things happen(ed) in the West | Feb 27 20:45 |
qu1j0t3 | but we had 100 years of reforms | Feb 27 20:46 |
qu1j0t3 | CHina's just the West, just a few decades behind | Feb 27 20:46 |
qu1j0t3 | except | Feb 27 20:46 |
qu1j0t3 | they will never get the reforms | Feb 27 20:46 |
qu1j0t3 | and the west will revert as well | Feb 27 20:46 |
qu1j0t3 | since all the mechanisms that brought reform are being progressively destroyed by plutocracy | Feb 27 20:47 |
schestowitz | globalisatiion | Feb 27 20:47 |
qu1j0t3 | sort of. | Feb 27 20:49 |

qu1j0t3 | ppl don't understand the impact of environmental regulation in the past 50 years | Feb 27 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | it's huge. we can still breathe. | Feb 27 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | but not for long | Feb 27 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | look at china's air -- another best kept secret | Feb 27 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | they don't have air | Feb 27 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | they have a perpetual fog | Feb 27 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | nobody talks about it | Feb 27 20:50 |
qu1j0t3 | yet every photo proves it | Feb 27 20:50 |
schestowitz | I heard so too, and the cancer stats | Feb 27 20:51 |
schestowitz | But China is a large country, clearly some places are far foggier than others. LA too is foggy. | Feb 27 20:51 |
qu1j0t3 | you don't need to 'hear' it. | Feb 27 20:54 |
qu1j0t3 | just look at any pic from china. | Feb 27 20:54 |
qu1j0t3 | location doesn't even matter. | Feb 27 20:54 |
qu1j0t3 | there's a great brown cloud that's created as well | Feb 27 20:54 |
qu1j0t3 | nobody talks about it | Feb 27 20:54 |
schestowitz | Some reader of TR from China told me about it in long e-mails | Feb 27 20:55 |
qu1j0t3 | just look at any picture | Feb 27 20:55 |
qu1j0t3 | look at the olympics | Feb 27 20:55 |
qu1j0t3 | air quality was their #1 problem | Feb 27 20:55 |
qu1j0t3 | they had to take the cars off the roads just to allow the olympics to happen | Feb 27 20:56 |
qu1j0t3 | athletes complained | Feb 27 20:56 |
qu1j0t3 | some refused to compete | Feb 27 20:56 |
qu1j0t3 | the air is a joke | Feb 27 20:56 |
qu1j0t3 | and not just in beijing -- everywhere | Feb 27 20:56 |
qu1j0t3 | it beats me why people aren't terrified by this | Feb 27 20:56 |
