Great, as long as it actually works and reduces pollution. I've seen enough videos out of China of people spray painting fields of rocks to make them appear like green fields and fleets of electric cars left to rot, all in order to meet targets, that I'm a bit jaded when it comes to great achievements coming from China.
If it actually works though, that's awesome. China is one of the most polluting countries in the world, if they can reduce their impact even a bit, that's going to have great consequences.
I genuinely didn't believe you when you said they painted the land... https://www.sixthtone.com/news/1004378 But here we are. I guess I should've known the Chinese government would go as low as this
You didn't even read the article, did you?
It was corporations, not the government, in fact the government shut down the factory because the company was trying to avoid regulations...
So basically it was corporations doing what they always do, but the government reacted as it should, unlike in the US, where a train derails and contaminates a river and possibly gives cancer to most of the inhabitants.
