China detains 11 for dumping 2,900 tons of garbage in river
China has detained 11 people for dumping over 2,900 tons of garbage into Yangtze river in Jiangsu province earlier this month, according to reports. This comes amid a crackdown on pollution in a bid to reverse the damage done to China's water, soil and air in many regions. Notably, China produced 191 crore tons of industrial waste in 2015.
