Global Change

Twenty years ago when out west my memory recalls clear sky and 100 mile visibility. This trip it seems very hazy in the distance and I believe 30 miles is the limit. Per the web, CO2 emissions are the lowest they have been in years and you never see smoke billowing into the sky. The coal fired electric plant at Thunder Basin (Gillette,Wy) looked like zero emissions. My theory is that China, SE Asia, and India is dumping massive amounts of pollution into the atmosphere and that until that stops our problem will continue and accelerate.
