It was probably all over the news across the world, because Beijing is in its dryest season of the year, yet: last week it snowed for more than 12 hours straight! And suddenly everything was white and even more beautiful. The way to work took about twice as long with trying to avoid cars bumbing into me and whoever decided to get a taxi that day got stuck in traffic for hours.
Now, the internet announced that this sudden white beauty was made in China, with silver-iodide having been shot into the sky. Hm, nothing wrong with that if it makes it proper winter as far as I'm concerned, but especially some Internet news thought it would be a good idea to condemn this practice straight away (apparently they#re is no danger to human). Obviously they didn't mention that this is common practice across the world, but I guess we can't expect too much. All I can say is that it looked beautiful and everyone was really happy here .....
