video on china’s environmental challenge
With the 2008 Olympics only days away, Beijing’s air quality is under close international scrutiny. But despite efforts to clean it up, air pollution still poses a serious issue for both China and the world.
Got an email from Asia Society Online about their new collaboration between the Center on US-China Relations. Asia Society’s project is entitled “ Clearing the Air: China’s Environmental Challenge” and covers:
the overall causes of the problem and what can be done about it. The multimedia project includes Longing for Blue Skies, a video narrated by Asia Society’sOrville Schell which features the work of 12 leading photojournalists, a daily Beijing photo diary documenting “blue sky days,” as well as statistics and other resources.
Looks very interesting, and it has an online comment/forum section as well.
