New Delhi has taken the top position...

In Global Public Square by Fareed Zakaria, I learnt that among the cities, Beijing, Shanghai, Mexico City and New Delhi, it appears New Delhi is the most polluted city.

We really should attack this problem at the origin, the show rooms for cars; the rickshaw testing; the two wheelers and the smoke stacks that throw up the dirt.

Read this article here on Yahoo news.

Read about things we can learn from another polluted city here.

A way to democratize pollution

The Chinese are really worried about their environment, which looks pretty bad right now. The winds are not helpful, they drive the pollution across the seas to Japan and Korea.

More importantly Chinese are concerned about themselves. by monitoring pollution using the Laser Egg (a very fancy name: http://www.origins-china.com/) common man on the street is montioring the weather to see for himself what it is like, not waiting for the Government data.
But it could really take on and democratize the pollution question getting it out of the hands of politicians and into the hands of the people. Laser egg will get the data people need to so that they can plan their actions.
Here is a picture of the Laser Egg from the Chinese site,


Here is a video.




Right now it is sold out, wait for a few more days before you try.

Debacle on Wall Street today

Wall Street experienced the worst performance (an intraday correction) loosing 500+ points. It was so bad CNBC even stopped the advertisements during the latter half. 

The event was as numbing as electrifying and if you missed the event, here are some pictures and videos right-off the TV. There was a great deal of pain!
