China - Environment - Industry - Baotou City

A puddle of sludge, reflecting nearby smoke stacks, in the Bao Steel mill in Baotou, Inner Mongolia, China. Baotou is an excellent example of a one-industry town, and that industry is steel. Baotou is also notorious as a big polluter, mostly from the large Bao Steel factory. With Baotou sitting directly west of Beijing much of Beijing's notorious smog and haze comes from cities such as Baotou, which lay directly west. With the economic stimulus package that was just earmarked for infrastructure and housing China's environmental goals have been put on hold for the foreseeable future, and while the residents of Baotou may not mind, one wonders about those of Beijing.
