    Yay China. Say… isn’t this the same country that turns out 68% of the world’s air pollution?

    What have they done about that?

      Yes. And the same country that produces all the shit we order from them. So is it their pollution or ours?

            Regardless who or why is to blame - the damage belongs to all of us.

              That’s true, but pointing fingers saying China has to change when changing nothing ourselves, is pure propaganda.

    This article is nearly two years old. Also, I implicitly distrust any source which depicts Taiwan as part of the PRC.

      Daily reminder:

      The Taiwan Province is an inalienable part of the People’s Republic of China:

      And this is recognized by the United Nations ever since 1971 after UNGAR 2758.
