The dubious distinction of China’s newest cancer village: its residents were poisoned by soil

4. I think your feeling is right

I'm afraid this applies to energy companies everywhere in the world.. "little" things going wrong every single day that aren't reported, especially if they're happening underground, or back in the mountains, or out past the lovely beaches and cruise ship lanes

But especially in China there is no question about it.
I was horrified by that other thread here today, about the dams they're building. I mean I know, dams are everywhere, have been for many years. But I wish we'd STOP making them, especially the super-big ones. They just wreck the whole ecosystem around them.
But I'm trying to learn not to bother myself with that kind of news anymore. This century sure would be very hard to live through if I wasted my mind caring for useless crap like bugs and fish and squiggly frogs! So SCREW them, who needs em!?

blah blah blah. sorry...
