Damn China- and India!!! Lololol.

I was surprised that and African city, Bamenda in Cameroun, should be
on the list so I looked it up and found this

Why is Bamenda so polluted?
A lot of dust, garbage and filth in slums pollute the air. One of the biggest culprits is deforestation. Changing weather patterns contribute to the poor quality of the air in this city, which is the third-most-populous municipality of Cameroon.Mar 1, 2018

What got me started was this story, and so I asked myself whether this city did not
have enough air quality problems already. So I went checking.


Chinese capital blasted by another dust storm

'Once-in-a-lifetime' moment: avalanche caught on camera

The Chinese capital city of Beijing gets covered by a sandstorm that causes hazardous air quality and pollution on April 15.
The third dust storm in about five weeks shrouded China's capital city in a yellow haze and caused air quality to deteriorate once again.

Strong winds whipped sand and dust from the Gobi Desert, located in southern Mongolia and northern China, into Beijing around 4:30 p.m., local time Thursday following a brief thunderstorm.

At one point, the city skyline was transformed from a murky yellow to an apocalyptic orange.

The waves of blowing dust caused visibility to drop between 1.8 and 3.0 miles (2.8 and 4.8 km) into Thursday evening, local time.

“I don’t feel good,” Gary Zi, a 48-year-old Beijing resident working in the finance sector, told The Guardian while pointing out that several dust storms have blasted the city this year.

“The (air) quality is much worse than in previous years,” he added during the interview. “Breathing becomes difficult. Sand gets into your eyes and your nose.”



The amount of sand in the air is said to be less than the two sandstorms in March according to the Chinese meteorological administration; however, the wind speed with this storm was higher, which allowed the sand and dust to travel over a larger area, the Guardian reported.

During the height of the dust storm, wind gusts up to 45 mph (72 km/h) were recorded. Winds continued to gust as high as 40 mph (64 km/h) Thursday night.

According to Plume Labs, the air quality index (AQI) in Beijing reached as high as 467. When this number reaches 100 or higher, the area is considered to have very high pollution.

The main pollutants were P10, which are particles small enough to reach deep into the lungs, and P2.5, particles that are small enough to pass into the bloodstream. Particulate matter is considered the most dangerous pollution to human health and can cause a variety of illnesses, said Plume Labs, a partner company that provides AccuWeather with data on air quality around the world.

The cloud of dust continued to spread east across northeastern China and the Korean Peninsula on Friday.

A team of experts from China's forestry and meteorological authorities arrived in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region as the third dust storm arrived in Beijing, according to the Global Times. The team will conduct field research on the contributing factors for this year's frequent sandstorms across northern China.

The dust storm that occurred in the middle of March was the deadliest of the three so far this year. At least 10 deaths occurred in Mongolia and hundreds of people became disoriented trying to locate cattle that had gone missing.

This why China is so desperately trying to expand into Africa to make a new China. So, many African governments are falling for the scam. Some are waking up tho.

How many of their neighbours would they have to loot to do this?

What else do we have to do? We are barely on this list.

If they expanded this list to 1000 cities, there would be
more American, Canadian and Mexican cities onit. Most
of the cities in Africa that have dirty polluted air are on this
list already. According to Larry Summers, Africa is already
underpolluted, and America should contrive to sent its
pollution there.

We may be poor, but our air might be the cleanest in
the whole world. While you patronise Africans, they actually
breathe cleaner air than you. Perhaps you should take your
own advice.

Kampala would make anybody's list. The fumes of a couple million badly tuned super rich burning motorcycles have rendered that place unbreathable. Accra should have made the list based on Agbogbloshie district alone. World's biggest radioactive mile wide computer and CRT dump leaching chromium, lead and mercury into the soil and groundwater with every rain. Africa and India have been europe and amerikkka's dumping grounds for decades.

The Chinese as people, tend to be more subdued and down to earth.
The Indians are arrogant and tend to condescend to dark skinned people.

In my country where the motherfuckers ran almost all of the shops, the
bitches were insufferable. Even though they were a small minority, you
could not go after an Indian girl. If you did, the bitches would come after
you, and the girl. Meanwhile, they were using their money to make half
Indian kids left, right and center, that they never supported.

(Now let me state for the record that I have never been interested in any
of these straight-haired people. However, I did have several classmates in
high school who made the attempt, and it did not end well)

It was with unlimited glee, when we read the stories by a reporter from
our country, deployed to India for a short period of time, who wrote
columns about how the Indian women were selling pussy for $1. He detailed
how he would get out at lunch from his university in New Delhi, be in the
slums in no time, and find women lined up, take one to her home, and fuck
her on a wooden table for a $1. Most of the women were married, and their
husbands would be waiting outside to collect the money as soon as they
came out.

Now when you see them, they behave like their shit does not stink.

Hahahahahahaha.. unfortunately I do not know. In a country short of water;
where half the population shits in the open, and the whole fucking place is an
is an open cesspool, I think it is safe to say that the smell of anything is the least
of anyone's concern.
