Thick Dark Pollution Clouds over Beijing
You may already know that Beijing even during the recent Olympics events were not exactly the most unpolluted city on the planet. In fact Beijing suffers from smog/haze pollution brought in by the winds from other parts of industrial China. Nonetheless, you will find that Beijing on the ground is a clean city. There was not one day on my visit to Beijing city back in September 2007 that there were no workers cleaning the streets. Big Beijing Haze Problem.
I don’t know about the post Olympics scenario in Beijing today but I reckon it’s not much difference than the pre Olympics months. Back on the point of the blog post, you can see in the above photo that there is a thick gray layer of clouds over Beijing. At first I did not realize it was a pollution problem. I just thought that they were very dark clouds like before it rains. I did not care much about the smog in Beijing during my stay; because I was too excited & happy being with my lady.
