Air quality in China is publicly known  as bad.  Longtime exposure to such polluted atmosphere could be as harmful as smoking  40 cigarettes per day, according to Berkeleyearth scientist. A  reliable source of daily air pollution could provide meaningful instruction for Chinese people’s outdoor activity.
