Beijing Makes Changes To Fight Air Pollution

Read the full article on Green Building Elements


Currently, looking at the sun in Beijing is like looking at a flashlight through a piece of paper
Beijing is one of the most polluted cities in the world. I visited China several years ago and it truly is a daunting spectacle; high rise building everywhere, an astonishing seven ring roads encircling the city and outlying parts, and people literally everywhere. It's not wonder that the air quality here is so poor since there is just a baffling amount of activity. China hasn't been the most environmentally conscious country in the past, but now is looking to clean up it's air quality, specifically in their capital city.


"For decades, air pollution has threatened the health of people in Beijing. Brown smog hangs over the city. The sun, when you can see it, is tinged a rusty brown, like looking at a flashlight through a piece of paper. City-dwellers wear surgical masks to protect their lungs from the pollutants and other chemicals that float in the air they breathe every day.

But the people of Beijing have had enough. Under pressure from the public and the United States embassy, the city has been forced to acknowledge the problem and provide accurate information about air quality."

  4. Did you realize there's a 12 word phrase you can say to your partner... that will trigger intense emotions of love and impulsive attractiveness for you deep within his heart?

    Because hidden in these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's instinct to love, idolize and protect you with all his heart...

    12 Words Will Trigger A Man's Desire Response

    This instinct is so built-in to a man's genetics that it will make him try harder than before to take care of you.

    In fact, fueling this influential instinct is so mandatory to having the best ever relationship with your man that once you send your man one of these "Secret Signals"...

    ...You'll instantly notice him expose his mind and heart to you in such a way he haven't expressed before and he will perceive you as the only woman in the galaxy who has ever truly tempted him.
