As of January, air pollution in Beijing had soared to 40 times the level recommended by the World Health Organization, according to The Economist, and the country is expected to produce twice as many carbon emissions as the US by 2015. Some 40% of China's mammals are classified as threatened species. The country is also under severe water stress. At the same time, China's growing economy is ravenously hungry for resources, consuming between 40% and 50% of the world's coal, copper, steel, nickel, aluminium and zinc.
The article shows what has happened to China's geography by explaining how much chinas polluting has changed the environment. China will eventually consume all the resources we need to survive and they need to create and use cleaner environment friendly ways of getting energy. If they do not it will only be a matter of time until they consumes all our natural resources and air pollution takes them over and it won't be safe to live there.
