China is like a prelude into a bad pre-apocalptic, totalitarian future no one wants to see. Collapsing super structures, population restrictions, and neighborhoods that inspired the likes of Blade Runner. Of course, the real issue here is not just a combination of pollution alone, but geographical factors that hold the air and smog in the same area. Only a strong storm or wind can carry away the smog--right into the atmosphere.

Not that some parts of the US are any better. We just have more space.

A new government.
