Chinese Pollution Death Tolls

I feel bad for the Chinese. One can only hope that the communist government will be replaced someday.

Looks like good scenery for something that belongs in Half-Life 2.

It's a shame. From what I could see of it, it is a beautifully looking part of the country.

It seems like the chinese are in such a hurry to catch up in the industrialized world that they totally sacraficed their citizens health to do it.

Its a fucking disgrace to a country when people have no choice to drink poisonous water.

it is a scary thought that this is the fastest growing economy and population (next to India) that they are capable of nuclear warfare and are so backward minded as a country.

this is a country that PAINTED the face of barren mountains GREEN in keeping with calls for more attention to environmental care!

this is a country that goes ahead and registers the names of internationally recognised trademarks like iPod and Playstation in China falsely, so when it comes to the real companies trying to sell their genuine products in China they have to 'buy back' the official rights to its own product name at a much much much inflated price.

The chinese are a rude money hungry, inefficient, cost cutting people. If you want to be ripped off and raped of your intellectual and artistic integrity take your product to china. I can assure you they will have a lower priced, lower quality version of whatever you invented whored out before you can say 'sweatshop'.

Are you kidding me? We need more "things" that kill people, and a LOT quicker than what is going on now.

Global Warming
Polution
Aids

Are actually GOOD for us. I know it sounds harsh, but no one has the balls to say "India, no more children for 50 years since you are causing over population"

So we actually need death and diseases, that affect us all (Some more than others such as China and India for now).

Like it or not, it's the truth.

china, polluted? no way! try renting a room to a chinese grad student. if your tennant turns out to be one who doesn't care, every surface in the kitchen will be covered in a layer of grease that seriously does not come off unless you use industrial strength grease buster, the carpet will turn completely black no matter what color it was before, and roaches will start to move in. well, i guess that would happen if you had any tennant that was a slob and didn't give a shit about not living in filth. the pollution is probably due to what ppl already mentioned, low cost labor = massive boom in manufacturing = further cost cutting = more pollution. but i think it's also the way they do things, they just improvise/cut corners on everything for the sake of efficiency or profit. it might also be a mind set of disconcern for the environment, because a lot of things are public or government owned, so they feel less responsibility or care about problems around them.

well, to be fair, most places would probably end up just as polluted if they didn't have much union power or government regulation on health and pollution standards. i dunno but i imagine there probably wouldn't be enough manpower to enforce strong regulations in a country that large. the government also probably wouldn't like to raise costs and drive always investors. that country's been having a fking crazy big increase in their economy recently

If each Chinese person were to consume as much as an average American, the world would be fucked.

America should stop bitching, they still pollute more.

America produces the most pollution in the world, far out reaching anything that China is doing.

This is not an American issue, a Chinese issue. The finger pointing needs to stop.

Either we all do something about it, as a species, or mother nature will simply take us all out with ease.

Think it can't happen? Just wait. This planet, if abused, will lash back so fiercely that we all may become extinct and everything else around us too.

What would be good would be if the "communist government" were to be replaced with a horizontally organised social structure in which there are no hierarchies in power based on economic class, gender class, racial class, sexual class, etc etc.

I.e communism, a structure in which no one owns the means of production, andin which it is managed democratically.

For now they'll have to suffer at the hands of state capitalism (a structure in which the state own and and hierarchically manage the means of production).

And China has already surpassed the US in CO2 emissions.

Dudes, you think this is all just about the Chinese and their government being neglectant with their environment?? This stuff is all our fault because we want these guys to produce our shit and for cheap!
So what do they do to reach that goal? They don't care about health or environment. We are all responsible for this.

1 - communist government has nothing to do with this, China has a whole different economic structure

2 - look at their population obviously they are going to have a lot of sewage, its all about placement of population if evryone shits in the same river the river is going to turn out to shit.

3 - other countries cause far more pollution even though "C02" levels are high, you still got plastic, fridges, TV, and other non recycable material being wasted by the western world.
