World's highest resolution global air pollution map
It's just been created by European scientists using satellite pictures from space.
The map highlights areas with a high concentration of nitrogen dioxide, and displays a picture averaging out 18 months of data to take account of seasonal variations.
The European Space Agency provided the data and published the map on its excellent website, which is full of interesting things.

The fact is that the UN is pushing the Kyoto Protocol scam which will move more manufacturing than ever to China.. This will make the pullution in that area (which already has the highest concentration on the planet) even higher. The Kyoto Protocol does not force China to comply with the same rules as the rest of the world. Why does the UN support communist China and give them all the breaks? huh? maybe because china is such a good role model for human rights. something doesn't make sense

We're all going to die anyway...So you don't like the industrialization of China? Nova's Earth Day Special 2004 was on this topic, you might go by the PBS website and check for re-broadcast. Like it or not folks nothing will change until global catastrophe. Don't we live in interesting times?
BUSH IS A MORON! COME AND GET ME CIA!

Amazing. It looks as if China is doing some *seriously* heavy industrialization in and around Beijing / Shanghai and the near interior regions.
