The Chinese authorities issued an alert this Sunday for the dense and harmful layer of pollution that covers it 17 provinces and what, in the case of Peking, s'ha convertit en el pitjor cas de pol·lusion of history.

Citizens in more than half of the country have been asked not to leave their homes to avoid the effects of the dust·pike, que a Pequín és qualificada de "severament perjudicial o perillosa".

La cap de l'Oficina del Clima i l'Energia d'Àsia Oriental de Greenpeace, Zhou Rong, assegura que la qualitat de l'aire de la capital és la pitjor que s'hagi registrat mai. The situation is similar in three other cities in Hebei province (nord) i a Tianjin (East). "És tan terrible que és difícil respirar", Zhou stressed.

Many Beijingers have taken to the streets wearing masks, ja que les autoritats mediambientals n'aconsellen l'ús. També recomanen evitar l'exercici extenuant.

Strong pollution, but, it has not prevented the streets of the capital from having the usual Sunday traffic today, que molta gent hagi decidit continuar amb els exercicis habituals de tai-txi al matí i que altres ciutadans hagin anat a patinar a les superfícies congelades dels llacs d'alguns parcs.

En els fòrums d'internet, many citizens have asked the local government to declare public holidays in the coming days, until the fog clears.
