So yesterday we had a nice weather but we also had a lot of wind, wind coming directly from the North. Blue sky, but freezing cold! Fortunately Beijing is not as cold as Harbin (-22°C today!)

So we all need to warm our places, Chinese people included:
Coal in Beijing

You said pollution?

Today I was enjoying the nice weather in Beijing and I thought: "Hum, nice blue sky and no smog! That's the perfect day to take few pictures!" I took many pictures, to show the different sources of pollution we have around here.

So first picture, the second ring road, Friday on 4pm:

Welcome to Pollution-China.com

The aim of this website is to deal with pollution in China and how to live with it.

We all know that pollution is everywhere in China: air, water, soil, food... And we all know that this pollution has an impact on our life and our health. That's a fact, but what? Should we flee away or should we live in bunkers, eating can food and drinking imported water???

I'm sure that there are other options, to keep living in China and still not altering too much our life expectancy. That's the scope of this website: Talking about pollution, but in a proactive way.

Since february 2008, we not only talk about pollution, we also act: We bring solutions to the market, solutions for protecting our health, solutions for reducing our impact!

Feel free to give your comments and share your own solutions.

About the author
Thursday, 30 November 2006, Written by Julien   
This website is run by Julien, a 26 years old French entrepreneur, living in Beijing since July 2005.

Being at the same time fond of urban sports and interested in environmental issues, I am deeply worried about pollution in China. It is a threat for our health and for China itself.

I also like challenges and thus decided to do something against that matter of fact: I created www.pollution-china.com to share my views, to build up some knowledge and to find solutions.

To make this effort sustainable, I am building a company to distribute the best solutions we find. Help us and visit our online catalogue!

In addition, I am also active in my community to promote ideas I believe in. Discover the French Junior Chamber in Beijing.
