GST,

You really believe that in two years, the two mile visibility will clear up? Over the last 10 years it has gotten only worse, not waxed and waned.

Shanghai is rapidly approaching that of Beijing, and continues to expand, pushing manufacturing out to the burbs. With the addition of so many cars, I find it difficult to imagine the air clearing anytime soon.

Air clearing has been the case in LA, but it was more like 10 years than 2, and a peek over Mullholland drive still leaves much to be desired.

Interestingly, a recent visit to San Diego suggests their may be some truth to your building boom pollution ideas, as one can no longer see the white mountain caps on a good day at Lego-land.

Nonetheless, people here talk about the efficiency of living in such cities of 22 million with fine mass transit blah blah blah...

The extent at which we are burning through our resources to make our fine bits of colorful plasticrap shrink wrapped electronic eardrum piercing eye-poking cancer creating pharmaceutical making gobbledy gook suggests that soon it won't really matter. Start growing your own food. Hoard the shiny things, like bullets. You'll need the lead to fill the holes in your teeth. <grin>
