Quick post to share this link. (It's...flash comic about industrial pollution in China at this point, I guess. I think the author explains it better in the notes.) It works as a stand-alone.
...that nursery rhyme from the beginning...I must've learned it before the age of four (because it pre-dates boarding school) and my parents know it because of me, and I just realized that I knew the first two lines of the second stanza...for some reason I've forgotten that until I saw the comic.
Last time my mother went to Beijing and stayed for more than two weeks she got asthma because of the air quality. Thankfully there is a movement toward environmental awareness and pollution, which got a large boost because of the Olympics (needs, must) and so there's some improvement these days. (Though if you're in Beijing you still can't really see the stars due to light pollution.)
