トランスメディア提供アイコン01 How many cigarettes do you smoke daily?

For those in Hong Kong, the answer is 8.

No kidding. This is what I found in the latest issue of Time magazine yesterday. The air pollution in Hong Kong is so bad. Living in Hong Kong for one day, the amount of pollutant inhaled equals to that of smoking 8 cigarettes.

So what do I think?

I think we've got a good reason to have more BBQ in Hong Kong. Having BBQ for one time is equivalent of having 1 cigarette daily for 1 year. When we are having 8 cigarettes every day, we should get a couple more to enjoy our life.

Furthermore, it is quite a natural disaster for a country with 14 billion people to develop without regulations and respect to public interests.

你每天吸多少支煙?

如果你活在香港的話, 答案是8。

沒有開玩笑, 這是我昨晚在「時代」雜誌看到的。香港的空氣汚染程度,已到達大家只要在這裡住一天就吸了相等於8支香煙的汚染物。

那麼我有甚麼感想?

首先我們可以更放心多去燒烤。在一次燒烤中才吸了一年中每日一支煙的汚染物,反正已吸了8支了,多幾支又何妨,而且是以這麼快樂的方式。

而且也看到了在一個有14億人口的國家在沒有有效的管制和人民缺乏公德的意識下以西方模式發展經濟,所帶來可怕的自然災難。
