Re: Oil Spill into Yellow River Tributary
well, that's quite a tragedy for many in the area...and, the wild life there will most likely suffer as well.
there's the problem, although i am not sure if this above is an excuse to pass on the buck or just an incompetance of some authorities around.out of the link:
The Environmental Ministry has tried to shut down polluting factories along China's main waterways, but its power is limited because local environmental protection bureaus are under the control of local governments.
accidents on mainland happen more often than they should and then there's the usual pointing of fingures at the lower institutions and/or coverup as well.
cheers and beers rather than oil to all
