URBAN TRAVEL IN POLLUTION FILLED CITIES

If you have lived in big cities most of your life then perhaps you would agree that as we get older the desire to move to open spaces with more natural light and less pollution grows at a rapid pace.

While a trip through the silk road from Abbottabad, Pakistan to China in 1976 may have been the best pollution free trip I took with family to see the China Wall. The same could not be put in that category anymore. A recent trip to Shanghai and some images show how pollution has engulfed this Country in Asia that houses the highest number of humans on the planet. If we can view this problem as a global issue rather than China's issue alone perhaps the resources and tools from around the world can help save this country headed to an  enviornmental disaster larger than life.
