My New Post

My post is how the air in China's major cities are still not safe to breath in. I found this article online that says that 90% of the cities in China are polluted. This is very interesting because Asian religions are very in touch with nature and only western religions exploit nature. It seems that Capitalism has affected the way of life in China. China has declared the "war on pollution," but it is easier said than done not even the capitol Beijing can meet the standards that the Environmental Protection Ministry has put into action. I wonder is this Ministry is even a real ministry that follows the rule that are set forward they do not even talk about a heavy fine for cities or companies that do not meet their air quality control laws. Only five cities in China meet the standard, and 230 new environmental agencies have been made to regulate the new environment. The article talks about PM2.5 that Beijing has 93 micrograms per cubic meter this years, but it is down from last years 106. The Ministry set a standard of 35 micrograms per cubic meter, and the Ministry has stated that they will not reach this goal until 2030. Talk about a delay, furthermore, the cities are not the heavily populated areas Hebei province accounts for 60% of the pollution in China. But, there are no known air quality restrictions on this province or the fact that there will be any or anytime soon.
