‘According to the National Environmental Analysis released by Tsinghua University and The Asian Development Bank in January 2013, 7 of the 10 most air polluted cities in the world are in China, including Taiyuan, Beijing, Urumqi, Lanzhou, Chongqing, Jinan and Shijiazhuang.’

So, how do plants grow in China without sunlight?
The report said cities not the entire country you may like to see if you can find China on a map, hint, it is next to India, hint 2, It is the third largest country in the world. Second largest by land mass.

well, an environmental group called the dutch state to justice because the air isn't clean enough, and the gouvernment is doing to little to change things. The state lost!!! Now the state have to reduce the co2 pollution with 25% since 1990, now they're only on 12%. So 13% to go, and that in one year.
Maybe in other countries there will be people who also can form a group to change things? Maybe people from here, reading this and thinking: I know whom I have to talk to?
your list has to be based on the particulate matter pollutand of varying sizes fro total particulate, metals, and pmFine.
i belive as far as green house gas pollutants the Top 5 most polluting countries are:
‘1.). China (30%) The world's most populated country has an enormous export market, which has seen its industry grow to become a serious danger to the planet. ...
2.) United States (15%) The world's biggest industrial and commercial power.

Funny how your original post did not mention particulates only that "the Ten Most Polluted Cities Are In China" But there you go, considering its all about air quality this is still more based in India than china.

Come on world, let's go for clean air.

and right you are to mention places affected by particalte pollution. it is fugitive particulates that reflect sunlight back into space and cooling the planet.... countering green house gases warming the planet. the dynamics of mother earth are beautiful.

Limun: 2013? and they`re still alive?...lets nuke them
yeah, so, if they are still alive how has their longevity and everyday quality of life been affected by all that crazy pollution. after all, agent orange claimed many more u.s. and vietnamese fatalities way after exposures, way long after the conflict.

Very good but where did you get your initial findings about china from. State a source. great blog by the way,
galrads: reverse lookup/google the op statement found in semi-quotes and i believe you will find the article originationg in China and used by many web sites.
Yeah, sorry about the confusion. I hadn't realised you were living five years in the past.
Still goes to show what a resourceful nation the Chinese are to have cleaned up their environment so much in five years.
