What is it that they do? And more importantly, why do we still have pollution? That's 360 people per state.
At any rate, the Gray Lady has once again shown why she is an invaluable national treasure.
The article drags a bit in places, but the subject matter is so important I just couldn't stop reading.
A taste:
"Only 1 percent of [China's] 560 million city dwellers breathe air considered safe by the European Union."
As always, there's a silver lining: "Much of the particulate pollution over Los Angeles originates in China."
Huh. And I thought it was the parking lot that they call the 405.

hi Aaron~! Yeah I think there's a lot more the US can do to combat pollution globally-- for example enforcing the same enviornmental regulations on US owned companies abroad as they have to obey here... I didn't understand till I travelled to Asia that people are literally dying of water and air pollution untended by short-sighted economies. Anyhoo. I saw on FB you're dating! Congrats!!
