Love Illuminates 爱照亮: Chengdu Zoo
http://loveilluminates.blogspot.com/2010/10/chengdu-zoo.html
China and the Environment. Sunday, October 24, 2010. Topic later, much more). But for today's topic, which I'm going to sardonically call "A Trip to. But so many of these zoo animals look and act like something with its mind excavated; ratty sacks of fur neurotically pacing the years away in a cement chamber. They aren't wild animals any more. I don't know what anyone could learn from them. I doubt many dog-owners would think this was an acceptable place to keep their pet all the time. For wolves it'...

China and the Environment. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. This has nothing to do with anything, but I was reading this article.

In any case, if there’s an “environment” spectrum, it probably goes something like this:. Suburbs (Where the ...

http://loveilluminates.blogspot.com/2010/10/chengdu-water-pricing.html
China and the Environment. Friday, October 22, 2010. Quick description of water pricing in Chengdu, as of June 2010:. Water pricing is different for households and various kinds of businesses.

China and the Environment. Sunday, November 7, 2010. Panda of the Day. I saw this guy at the Panda Breeding and Research Center here in Chengdu. It looks like he was the victim of a particularly destructive hurricane, but he's actually just asleep. It probably wore him out climbing up there. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Love Illuminates 爱照亮: A Different Kind of Water Safety...
http://loveilluminates.blogspot.com/2010/10/different-kind-of-water-safety.html
China and the Environment. Saturday, October 23, 2010. A Different Kind of Water Safety. As I was drinking from my Haoqixiaozi-brand reusable water bottle the other day, I noticed this sticker:. Translated, it says “SGS Inspection, American FDA food-grade standards.” The little red circle says “qualified.” (As if a company would ever label a product “unqualified” or better, “unfit for human use.”). My first reaction was “yeah right,” so I went to the SGS website. I also went to the Haoqixiaozi website.

China and the Environment. Saturday, September 25, 2010. Tour Bus to Heaven: Monks and Monkeys. This last week was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we got some time off from school (although we have to make up for it on the weekend, which is weird) so my classmate Kiana and I decided to go to E’Mei Shan, the highest of the four Buddhist holy mountains of China (3,099 meters or 10,167 feet if you're American. And for the kids there are…monkeys! Bottled water: modern scourge. 8221; and walked out of the office...
