Air in the Cancer Kingdom


Our air pollution has been climbing back up into the 400s and 500s lately, so I thought I'd put up a couple pictures from Hongbo Square of our air over the weekend. Excuse the title, it should be 'the Middle Kingdom,' but I can't help wondering how many of us breathing the air on days when the pollution is up in the 800s and 900s are going to have cancer when it is generally agreed it's unhealthy to be breathing it in when it's over 70...




Looking from Hongbo Square down Hongjun Street towards the city's main Bank of China branch and Zhongshan Road.




Center is the building of the Heilongjiang Provincial Museum, formerly Harbin's Moscow Department Store.




The city's main China Construction Bank branch, shining through the smog with China's national bird just to the right.
