The results were a 23.8% reduction in PM2.5, and a 30% reduction in carbon monoxide, resulting in some 320,000 fewer deaths from air pollution.
If my comment upsets you then it was intended to: fuck China. If they want this research to have legitimacy they should put the researchers’ or institution’s name in the headline instead of China.
You can fuck China and also be happy that they have reduced air pollution
Yes I absolutely can, and curiously here I am saying Fuck China and some demographic on the fediverse is REALLY upset about that.
I just stumbled upon this, but to me it looks like you’re the one who’s upset…?
For real, there is a time to get angry, and it is when an evil dictatorship spends billions to deal direct immediate harm to you.
I get what you’re saying.
As someone who also doesn’t like China: your original comment was off topic. That’s why you’re getting downvoted
People on the fediverse tend to be upset about moronic comments that make no sense.
It’s literally coming from Goodnewsnetwork.org
It’s not like this is the BBC here.
