Your point was covered by it. Well, you didn't choose your words too carefully. You said "...*being* the greatest polluter" (present tense) Possibly your meaning would have been clearer if you said "...has a history of *having been* the greatest polluter." (past tense), giving a tip of the hat to China's *current* status. In any event, have a nice day! * :-) Thank you Nick for improving my sentence construction admirably. |

China did that in 2008 and by 2020 is expected to Double the Pollution that it makes and ships around the World. -but- Good News China may soon have to take a second seat to India who by 2020 may surpass China as the Worlds BIGGEST POLLUTER ! |
