In the mid-1970s the air pollution was a disaster in Los Angeles, and eventually it got a little better, but still by the late 1980s it was worse. Los Angeles eventually cleaned up their act, but wait the pollution is back. Of course with 460 square miles of concrete and 16.5 million people, well what did you expect anyway?

Recently, I got an email from Hong Kong and it appears the Mainland China air pollution is clogging the air, the pollution so ugly and worse you can taste it when you breath? Indeed, I am concerned with the air-pollution as well. I was in Mexico City recently, yuk, disgusting. I noticed LA is looking almost as bad as it did in the mid-1970′s and with the temperature inversions and summer temperatures, it just hangs there all day and urban heat makes it even worse.

You would think that the venturi affect between all the tall buildings in all the largest human cities would cause the air to blow out the smog, and in places like Hong Kong allow it to be distributed over the Pacific Ocean, I know;

The Solution to Pollution is not Dilution

but it would help Taiwanese and their lungs, as it isn’t very fair that it is not all their pollution that they are breathing. China said they would fix the problem – little is changing. Is there a way to fix this problem? Can a Think Tank invent a way to curb the pollution, a temporary fix using our greatest technologies ask our friend from Hong Kong?

The concept of using the friction from the airflows over an aerodynamic shape, and using the static electricity could help. We had a thought using an ELF terminal-gradient cloud negatively charged to collect the smog and then the density would cause gravity to pull on it, then vacuum it up and use it for CO2 laser manufacturing?

It seems with the US funding “Clean Coal” technologies that soon we should have an answer for that issue. We could use laser post exhaust on ships and trucks burning diesel fuel or aircraft burning kerosene or Jet Fuel. Personally I have put forth several ideas myself. Surely, we can get one of these ideas to fly. Now that would be a start. Think on it!
