China Isn’t Completely Polluted

We’ve given China a hard time here in the past. The levels of pollution in many lakes and rivers is staggering. Not all of China is polluted of course, here are some places in china I’m sure we’d all love to fish.

    Nice pics. China is huge. The rep that China is getting is well deserved. I often see heaps of crap on the beaches here that wash up on the shores from China and Korea. I met a guy that lives in Korea and he told me that the amount of crap washing up on the Korean coast from China is shocking. China is going through an overwhelming industrial revolution, faster than the people can cope with. Some of the cities have grown from a few hundred thousand people to 7 million in 25 years. That is huge. With the land around the cities being leased by companies to build more and more factories, the farmers that owned and worked the lands have become the richest men in China. It’s always so disappointing to see people throwing trash on the street and into the waters. Japan is no different unfortunately. There are some areas that you cannot eat the ocean fish because of the pollutants in the area and no current to dilute it. There is a ship yard near here that uses lead based paints and sprays on the huge ships. all into the water.
    I’d better stop. I can rant for ever on this topic!
    Anyhow, those are nice pics.
