This article (and map below) shows the concentrations of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) a substance with the darling qualities of causing “respiratory problems and lung damage, and can also contribute to harmful ozone forming near ground level”

Check out Canada. Of course Toronto and the various other big cities around the great lakes are all red, but what surprised me is how clean Vancouver is and that Calgary is nudging on the red end of the scale.

    When I moved out East my eyes became very itchy, and I have concluded it was my eyes adjusting to the pollution.

    I remember living in Calgary and seeing a brown rainbow of sky sludge in the horizon. The pot of gold is actually molten tarmac, in the industrial quadrant.

    Thank god my area that I live in is 95% urbanized, so I cannot see the horizon.
