Just came accross this picture from Beijing 2005 (left) – 2012 (right)
Crazy. I think you could find a photo from the last few months that resembles the one on the left. I think Beijing has pretty recently had pollution as low as 50. I think wind from the north clears out all of the pollution periodically.

Where are the protests? Oh, right, the Diaoyu islands are much more important to everyone’s daily lives.
Protests over air pollution produce no sense of national identity or superiority!
