| Stunning photos of China
By stunning, I mean it in a bad way. Hopefully this is already rock bottom and wont go any lower.
Chemical waste from Jiangsu Taixing Chemical Industrial District (江苏泰兴化工园区) dumped on top of the Yangtze River bank. May 15, 2009 
Guiyu, Guangdong province, (广东省贵屿镇) rivers and reservoirs have been contaminated, the villager is washing in a seriously polluted pond. November 25, 2005 
Anhui Province Cihu Chemical Industry District (安徽省慈湖化工园区) built a underground pipe to discharge wastewater into the Yangtze River. The wastewater sometimes is black, gray, dark red, or yellow, wastewater from different chemical factories has different colors.

Breathing in large amount of dust into the lungs, people gets sick after working there for 1-2 years. Most of these migrant workers come from area of poverty. April 10, 2005
| Can you imagine... going there to work for 2 years and get cancer right after? The medical bills probably exceeds the wage made.

my point was.. some places in china are clean. I was trying to point out that not all of China was that polluted for those who has never been to China.
take a look at Zhong Jiang. That place is pretty clean, even though the water is not as clean as the water here.

what those picture shows is that China still has a long way to go before truly becoming a real global power house despite what the GDP might say

I'm sure the U.S. and Europe were probably similarly filthy when they were industrializing; we just weren't around to see it then. China's probably worse though with all the fucked up chemicals that have been invented since then.

China is disgusting, and this is just one of the many ways.
But in other ways, it's an amazing, beautiful country.
Which is what makes me so sad  | |

I would rather live in skid row off the streets with welfare and social service than in the chemical dump knowing I will get cancer within 2 years.
