China calls record pollution: smog





Li Keqiang, set to become China’s next premier, called for the nation’s citizens to have patience as authorities work to reduce pollution in the world’s second- biggest economy.

“Production, construction, consumption cannot come at the price of hurting the environment,” Li said in comments broadcast by state radio yesterday. “The current situation wasn’t created in one or two days, it accumulated over a long time. Solving this problem will also be a long-term process.”
