Northern China is battling heavyweight smog that
has swept across in a rather alarming manner. It has been surprising
to find the speed with which the smog has covered all major area and
it seems that the coverage area is increasing quite rapidly. Now you can see
that technological progress at the cost of environment can have
serious ramifications. Or is this smog a regular activity? The effect of rising
pollution levels in China cannot be denied and this
has definitely had an impact.
Meanwhile visibility has been reduced to approx. 200m in
the capital region and authorities have advised people to stay indoors. All
across the street you can see people wearing masks. Even in
offices people are wearing headgear fearing the toxic air may have
ventured inside the office premises. China Central Television is
full of smog stories. Hundreds of flights have been affected.
