ZeroHedge- Beijing’s pollution problem is getting worse by the day.
On Wednesday, the Chinese capital issued its highest “red fog alert” for only the second day in history, keeping highways closed in and around the city which is already under a smog alert after weeks of choking winter pollution. China’s weather bureau warned of visibility of less than 50 meters in some areas, leading many airports to cancel flights.
[…]A passenger was quoted as saying that the ship was scheduled to return on New Year’s Eve after traveling to South Korea and Japan. But she was told by the crew that the ship could not dock as visibility was severely compromised by the smog. She said the passengers had been unsure how long they would be stuck at sea but were grateful there was plenty of entertainment on board to kill time. MORE
China’s Great Leap Fogward
But the EPA and Climate pukes swear that if America would only stop driving cars, using coal, harvest and burn off cow farts, etc, all of this will go away…
one way to reduce the population
Do Chinese cruise ships not have radar?
Navigator
They have oars.
….aaaand we keep keep shipping our coal to them while the vindictive, arrogant, stumbling, sarcastic, maladroit, fundamentally-transforming, narcissistic, corrupt, sheet-grabbing, pillow-biting, stair-prancing, Gay-obsessed, ankle-grabbing-flexible, Communist-Organizing Hood-Ornament deliberately strangles the American people and ruins our coal industry so that the Chinese can buy it out from under us for a penny on the dollar to continue burning it without pollution controls!
I did not realize that China has cruise ships. I know that there’s cruise ships that go to China and that Princess cruise lines has one specific ship (a new one) dedicated strictly to China. I read the article but there’s no name of the cruise ship.
This is China. 100s of millions of excess young males.
The Bridge can afford to order some crew out to just swim around and shout out when they eventually bump into a dock. Any dock.
And yeah, I looked in vain for the name of the ship or even the cruise line.
Replacing real reporters with Millenial girls has reduced journalism to the level of sorority OMG tweets.
Don’t worry citizens of Beijing, Ontario’s new carbon tax will cancel all that smog out.
You’re welcome.

Lotta traffic at the TaiJin port.
I wonder how much reserve food those chinese
pieces of ship maintain while underway?
This is one reason why you know that AGW eco-nuts are liars and idiots. They realize that China will never sign any accords about air pollution, yet bitch and moan about Americans driving SUVs.
The other reason that you know they are full of sh!t is that they oppose nuclear energy, which is a zero green house gas energy source.
For the record, AGW is insignificant. CO2 is a poor green house gas, it is present in only small amounts in the atmosphere and humans only account for a tiny percentage of it. If mankind ceased to exist tomorrow the CO2 level would be the same.
