2/24: Beijing dust storm



Beijing was basically overcome by a yellow dust storm this week, which I understand is a consequence of poor management of the land - deforestation and industrial usage - plus drought. But this dust also contains remnants of industrial complexes, say the Koreans who were hit by it a few days later.

And in a few days from now, some of that dust is expected to hit the western shores of the US.
