Action against smog not enough

Never has Beijing been shrouded in such apocalyptic smog.

The particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 microns has reached more than 1,000 micrograms per cubic meter in some areas.

No one should doubt that such serious air pollution will stifle the dynamic of the capital in many ways if it continues. Fortunately, it will hopefully disperse with the coming of wind from Wednesday on.
