US Embassy: Beijing air quality is 'crazy bad'

And then you have this occuring in China when a country rages out of control in terms of pollution and concern for their environment.

The embassy later deleted the phrase, saying it was an "incorrect" description and it would revise the language to use when the air quality index goes above 500, its highest point and a level considered hazardous for all people by U.S. standards.

The hazardous haze has forced schools to stop outdoor exercises, and health experts asked residents, especially those with respiratory problems, the elderly and children, to stay indoors.

Now maybe global warming is not solely caused by us. Maybe there is a slight oscillation to earth's orbit that over millennia causes it to cool and then heat up. But there seems to be something going on, regardless.

It seems to me we can be proactive (Friedman) or we can either stick or heads in the sand or scream 'conspiracy' (ala Phylis Schlafly and Brian Sussman).

But if we don't make an effort to do our best to protect our environment, what kind of world will we leave our kids?
