Study Pinpoints Source of Banned Gas That Saps Ozone Layer: Eastern China
I mean, let's be honest here: is this really a surprise?There's a business culture of dishonesty throughout the country that is unprecedented. Their food supply is poisoned by factories that simply don't care about life and only care about money. There have been articles about how cooking oil is recycled from waste, and how fish are fed feces instead of food and packed in ice from polluted waters. Fake milk, fake baby formula, fake eggs for crying out loud. They add poisonous chemicals to pass tests, but those chemicals killed hundreds of pets in the US. And when the FBI went to investigate, the factory has already been burned to the ground to eliminate evidence. My friend worked at Uber and she said that the amount of fraud perpetrated within China was staggering, more than any other country on a per capita basis.There was an article on HN recently talking about how some Chinese products on Amazon have 40x the safe amount of lead and 30x the safe amount of cadmium in children's products. How does lead and cadmium get into a Spider-man pencil case for fuck's sake?It's so bad that even Chinese citizens simply don't trust the products made in China. When Chinese citizens go abroad they buy things like baby formula because they know they can't trust Chinese baby formula. It's sickening. I'm teaching my children to completely stay away from cheap Chinese products because we seriously have no way to know if it's safe, and our government has cut funding time and time again so it doesn't have enough resources to test the goods coming in.It's reprehensible.
