China pollution anger boils
Tuesday, 15 January 2013
BEIJING: Public anger in China at dangerous levels of air pollution, which blanketed Beijing in acrid smog, spread yesterday as state media queried official transparency and the nation’s breakneck development. The media joined Internet users in calling for a re-evaluation of China’s modernisation process. Dense smog shrouded large swathes of northern China at the weekend, cutting visibility to 100 metres in some areas and forcing flight cancellations.
