People in Beijing cannot see the sun because the air is full of smog (a mixture of smoke and fog).
The smog is so thick that it blocks the sun all day. People really miss seeing the sun. Beijing's leaders
decided to put giant LED screens across the city. People stand in front of the digital screens and watch
the sunrise. The screen in Tiananmen Square also had a special message on it. It was a public
announcement that read: "Protecting the atmosphere and environment is everyone's responsibility."
This is really a hit with tourists. One from Mexico said: "It looks like science fiction. It's kind of cool,
but it's also worrying." The air quality in China's cities often becomes bad in winter. People burn more
coal for heating in the winter months. This causes more pollution. Many workers wore face masks on
their way to work. They did not want to breathe the poisonous air. One man told
reporters: "I couldn't see the tall buildings across the street this morning. The smog has
ANSWERS
become worse in the last two to three years. I often cough and my nose is always
running''.
