Better air， 空气好一点儿

Just wanted to let everyone know again about October 15, the Blog Action Day when all the blogs in the whole world will focus only on Environmental issues. Hope the bloggers voice will be heard...
If you have not done so, add your blog to the participating list and get ready to post something about the environment on the 15th.
