(continuing, Zero Hedge): Via Bloomberg:
"City’s air quality index reading near Tiananmen Square, putting it in category defined as “serious” pollution.
City warns residents to avoid outdoor activitie
Reading of PM2.5 pollution near Tiananmen Square was 583 micrograms per cubic meter as of 6 a.m., with average reading in past 24 hours at 338, according to city’s air-monitoring website
NOTE: World Health Organization recommends 24-hour PM2.5 exposure of no more than 25"
[Ed. note: Zero Hedge didn't include a link or date on the Bloomberg story. I've found many Bloomberg articles on China pollution (see end of this post) but none with this exact text. It may exist, I just can't find it.]
(continuing): "The widely followed @BeijingAir twitter account confirms just how bad it is on the ground. For those confused "Beyond Index" is a friendlier way of saying "Off The Charts." via @PeterSchloss
