pollution

what's wrong with this picture?


compare it to this one.  


the complete lack of mountains shows how amazingly bad the pollution is right now.  it's not a hot season; it's a polluted season.  due to rice field burning and the geography of being nestled in mountains, the smoke blankets the city...for months on end.  lately, the kids have not been allowed to run at recess; today they couldn't even go outside (video time!).  our lungs and eyes burn, our heads pound, our kleenexes end up black.  this is supposed to be here until the rains come in june!  here's hoping recess isn't gone that long!
