The Guardian (UK based newspaper) had an alarming article yesterday: "Urban air pollution more dangerous than Chernobyl".

The reason behind such a statement: every year, urban air pollution is responsible for 24,000 premature deaths in Britain! It means that roughly 4% of all the death during a year are quickened by the urban pollution.

I will investigate how is air pollution in UK, to find comparisons with the situation in China. As a reference, 4% of China yearly death would mean around 350,000 people!
