Good news: Beijing’s pollution levels dipping remarkably

This news is even soothing for me coz I am a patient of asthma and I was wondering whether should I proceed with my planned trip to Beijing Olympic games? But now after reading the news that China had spent a whooping $17 billion for cleaning the prevalent air pollution of Beijing city, I have decided that I will proceed as per my plan.

We all knew that China had lot of pressure from the rest of the world to clean up the air and atmosphere of Beijing and that it was trying everything it could to make the city air breathable.

And as per the story that I read on Bloomberg, China is getting results in its attempt to clean Beijing’s air. According to that story, Beijing last year had 246 days of blue sky compare to 100 days of blue sky in 1998.

Man, I say its damn good news—a healthy sign that all athletes and spectators like me will be happy about.
