I live in Shanghai, and it is usually not this polluted. This is an odd picture because of the angle of the light.

Also, I can’t figure out where in Shanghai this was taken!

Most of you are battering China because of this? Pretty hateful imo. We do have the same pollution here. When I went up to Pomona (20miles east of LA) for college and went outside to jog I literally choked. The air was so bad for me I had to stopped myself from exercising outside. Of course, one gets use to the pollution after being there for a few years. That in itself is bad.

Without detracting too much, we have cities here just as bad. You can’t see LA on most days. Heck, I couldn’t even see the mountains right in the back of my college apartment on a bad day. All you see is this brown layered dust. Of course having the dumpsite hidden in the mountain didn’t help either. All those burned ashes falling from the mountain…yea, nice planning there alright.
