Air pollution is good for you

"Two prominent news outlets in China suggest smog actually benefits the country and residents. Tuesday, the Global Times and CCTV came under fire for commentary that suggests the rising air pollution crisis in the communist country actually provides benefits and advantages to the Chinese people, according to a Dec. 10 Reuters news report.

China's smog problem may not actually be doom and gloom suggests the tabloid and state media broadcaster. And while this sounds like a politically incorrect joke; this is the type of propaganda that hit the news and airwaves this week."

It's pretty bad here at the moment too! Scary thing is I've heard some of our colleagues brush off the effects of smog on a regular basis. Cognitive dissonance on show!
