Most Polluted City On Earth

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

It amazes me that even though the US is number one in oil consumption and green house gas emissions, that China can have 16 of the top 20 most polluted cities on the planet. The link is to a 5 part documentary, short 5 minute segments and part 5 is coming soon, about Linfen China, the most polluted city on the planet. Apparently breathing one day in Linfen is equal to smoking 3 packs of cigarettes. Do smokers in Linfen actually have better lungs because at least some of the air they breathe every day is filtered?

I’ve just enabled feeds via email over at feedburner. Click on the blue rss icon in the upper right of this page or just click here to subscribe. Enter your email and a feedburner window will pop up. Type in the captcha and close the window. You then have to click on a link in a confirmation email.

It just sounds convoluted and weird. Trust me.
