Interesting - I also expected to see a picture of some industrial Apocalypse, or similar. Shows how conditioned we are to negative conceptions of China.

Viewing China as the "Land of Pollution" and nothing else makes our lives seem simpler. Good guy - bad guy.
No country, particularly one as big as China, is simply an "Axis of Evil" or a "Land of Pollution". Nice pic, Are_grits_groceries. Thanks for posting it.
