The Real Beijing

Ridiculous. I was in Shanghai and Beijing this summer for two weeks in total, and not a single day did I see a blue sky. Smog, smog, smog, and a tour guide recommended we go to the olumpics site at night when smog is less noticeable. At one point in Chinese history a rebel leader could persuade people that the blue sky was being replaced by a yellow one. PRC leaders may still believe in such absurd propaganda power ... So sad. Water does not taste well either in China.

What can I say? These are the pics I took when I was there! It's plain to see that there can be plenty of blue sky. Of course that doesn't mean that Beijing has smoggy days too though.
My point is that Beijing is just another city that of course will have pollution due to having over 14 million people, but if NYC or Toronto had 14 million within it's city limits then the pollution would surely be much worse than Beijing.
Beijing and Shanghai are also very humid, hard to see the sky through H2o

You did not and do not have to say anything before checking the statistics. Beijing population density is about 1000 per square km. Manhattan population density is about 10,000, for 8 million people and 20km by 4km island. I see blue sky in Manhattan everyday if it is not cloudy. For about a week in Beijing I did not see any this summer, even the morning after it thunder showered. Do not forget New York is humid too. Water vapor, fyi, is transparent. Be objective.

You are wrong I have seeen Beijing before, the PLA army showed us a Free tian an men tour.

that was very nice of them.

That was the tian an men massacre, idiot!

These photos were taken during olympic time haha

Very good. It only says that under "more info" on the top right.
Glad you were able to figure that out jianghua! lol

I know you haven't seen Beijing before so this video is extra good for you.

That's why the sky is blue not grey ROFL

I didn't know the CCP was that powerful that they could turn the sky blue whenever they want.

That's a pretty cool trick, go find me a video that explains how they turned the sky blue.
