People who say the world is going to end tommorow are not to be believed.
But that doesn't mean that the impact that we've had on this planet in only a couple of generations isn't cause for deep concern.
China's emissions acounted for 1% in 1950. Today it's nearly half of the U.S.
and Equal to Europe. EVERYONE is concernend about China's escalating pollution.
I recently read that Japan's steel industry has offered to help the Chinese to produce less toxic manufacturing methods. I guess they figured out they'll soon be breathing the same dirty air.

Take it from someone that lives in New Jersey where the smell of pollution penetrates through car windows and is nothing short of overwhelming. Sometimes I have to raise the top on the BOxster because the air so bad.
We can do more harm in a short amount of time than anyone realizes. I don't need the Greens to tell me my air is filthy. I live it every day.
