An interesting side note - the measured atmospheric levels of CO2 in the latitude running from China to North America is higher than the CO2 levels in the same latitude coming off the North American Atlantic coast. North America is a net CO2 sink. Aside from that, this is the typical NYTimes nonsense piece when it comes to extrapolating the credible regional effects of too much pollution into a whole 'nother Global Warming crusade. Apparently, the NYTimes has concluded that anthropogenic global warming is an established fact. Apparently, the NYTimes writers and editors have never read these peer reviewed studies that refute the whole notion: http://www.clearlight.com/~mhieb/WVFossils/greenhouse_data.html http://www.co2science.org/scripts/CO2ScienceB2C/data/mwp/description.jsp http://climatesci.atmos.colostate.edu/?cat=3 http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/mgs/msss/camera/images/CO2_Science_rel/index.html http://solar-center.stanford.edu/sun-on-earth/glob-warm.html Now, is the pollution coming from China a problem? Of course. Unlike the US, who's environmental laws can best be described as overkill, China's environmental laws are on the other end of the spectrum, e.g. either just lip service to show the world that they might start doing something about it, or simply not following a common sense/stewardship approach.
