Pollution in China seen by NYT
Monday, 17 December 2007, Written by Julien   
The New York Times is free since few months only and that's definitely good news (you only need a free registration). They are currently publishing a really interesting series of articles about pollution in China.

I read the first article some months back, As China Roars, Pollution Reaches Deadly Extremes, which gives an in depth overview of the situation in China.

It is actually part of a complete series called "Chocking on growth", which already has 8 long articles plus videos, dealing with subjects like water, air, Three Gorges dam...

The last article is about food, In China, Farming Fish in Toxic Waters. Read it and you will think twice before eating fish in China again!
