Would you eat fish from China? Given all the recent bans on all other types of products from China?
No i would not.





In fact, i have thrown out all my China made canned foods and am avoiding purchasing any other China made products, food or otherwise!
Reply:blah blah blah


stop blaming China...





have you ever been to China?


oh yeah, you just sit at your computer looking for more "reasons" to blame China
Reply:No %26amp; I wouldn't buy anything made in China


by reason of safety issues.
Reply:I check labels on food and if it's from China, I bypass it. Our own food safety systems still miss things, but at least we have checks and balances in place to check the quality of food. There have been too many instances of Chinese officials knowing about the safety problems and ignoring them for me to be comfortable buying anything from China. Unfortunately, quite a bit of the merchandise sold in North America is from China. I wish the local governments would put more pressure on China to do more to ensure product safety.
Reply:Put blame where it belongs. They have practically non-existent safety standards. They send us toys, food and toothpaste that poison us. Let's stop buying their krap, so they can stop working their citizens like rented mules. The next time you go to wal-mart and pick up food or toys, check for the "made in China" label..Then put it back on the shelf.





You think their food is scary, wait until they start sending cars!
Reply:lead paint......fish.... i dont see any comparisons....


I am in china mainland.this is my third year.i enjoy chinese food.my teeth is getting yellowish why?

is it due to chinese food or drinking green tea or due to bad water quality. i have not visited dentist. is there any home made medicines or any other solutions for it?

I am in china mainland.this is my third year.i enjoy chinese food.my teeth is getting yellowish why?
it can be due to a number of things and it happens to people all over the world...not just because you live in china





drinking tea in general does stain the teeth, as does coffee. chinese food...it depends on what you eat. If it's full of food colouring (which chinese food is not), then maybe it's that. or curry.





for homemade remedies, Crest Whitestrips is really useful and it actually works.
Reply:Maybe your enjoying the food so much your forgetting to brush your teeth?





Teeth getting yellow can be caused by any food, not just chinese food. Make sure you brush and floss at least twice a day, and remember to brush your tongue as well (80% of bacteria rests on your tongue).


Why Do "Green" Liberals Still Say The "CO2" Kyoto Treaty Is Good For The Environment?

The Kyoto treaty is nothing but a welfare program for 3rd world countries. It closes "clean" factories in countries with good enviromental laws (like the U.S.) and creates new "dirty" factories in countries with bad pollution records (like China ).





The Kyoto Treaty is a joke. Communist China and India don't have to follow the treaty but they are able to sell their pollution credits to clean countries in Europe. Because of the Kyoto Treaty, many European companies could not operate without purchasing pollution credits from 3rd world countries. And if those same European companies were located in China or India then the companies would be able to pollute as much as they wanted to.





China sells pollution credits to Spain for $375 million

Why Do "Green" Liberals Still Say The "CO2" Kyoto Treaty Is Good For The Environment?
Not only doesn't China have to follow it..In a few years they will far out pollute us...
Reply:Has any of them Stopped driving all those gas guzzling vehicles? Accorxding to them cows emitting gases are just as big a problem to the environment and helping thousands of illegal aleins stay in the country will teach greedy Americans what it is like to live in a Third World Country too according to the Sierra Club! They are filthy rich and want to stay that way! It;s Hypocritical as they put Americans out of work!
Reply:liberals love government control of corporations because they hate corporations they can't control.
Reply:it would be a recipe for starvation and for what, a myth called Man Made global warming.
Reply:your barking up the wrong tree. you think the reason why we outsource to china is just for cheap labor? It is also so they have to deal with the pollution from manufacturing goods rather than us.
Reply:Why Do "Green" Liberals Still Say The "CO2" Kyoto Treaty Is Good For The Environment?


Only because the developed countries have exhausted their quota of pollution and now crying for the pollution credits! Mr. Bush does not care for the Kyoto treaty and is in good condition, who cares. Why blame China and India why not the USA the greatest polluter of the environment.
Reply:Also known as the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, this treaty is a goal agreed upon by many nations of the world. Its aims are to reduce greenhouse gases by limiting each nation's output. Green liberals stand by this treaty because it is a way to solve global warming by taking the next step toward weening ourselves off of fossil fuels for energy. It also is a great treaty in that it gets the world on the same page so that we can all work toward a cleaner environment.


China: what the difference between party (ccp) and state in china. is there no difference at all.what's truth.

in usa, many modern party, parties:


left-right-center party


democrat party


republican party


green party


libertarian party


coke party, pepsi party, mcdonald party, burger-king party


coors, budweiser, miller party, miller party


how come there is only one-party in party.


what's the difference between party-state, state-party


is there really no difference at all.


is the party the state


is the state the party.


what's the truth now.?

China: what the difference between party (ccp) and state in china. is there no difference at all.what's truth.
The truth is a lie. The lie is the truth. You can't have the party without the state and you can't have a state without the party.

Why are british drivers persecuted so much when their carbon footprint is only a tiny fraction of China's?

The way British drivers are taxed (new car prices, engine size tax ,more road tax for bigger engines higher fuel taxes) you would think that they caused 90% of the world's pollution, when in fact it is an insignificant amount. If ALL the cars in Britain were destroyed in one fell swoop, China's power stations alone would have made up their pollution in a week. There are more cars in one state in the US than in the whole of Britain but it's Britain's drivers that get hit hardest...compare petrol prices in the US and the UK...it's the extra tax put on by the British government that makes British petrol prices around 3x greater than in the US.


Isn't it about time these 'green freaks' got things into perspective?

Why are british drivers persecuted so much when their carbon footprint is only a tiny fraction of China's?
i agree that's over the top, I'm in the states and your right there are more cars in most states then there are in the whole of Britain, i live in Arizona and i would say that just the older cars that are emissions exempt probably make up more pollution then your whole country, it doesn't seem fair at all but i guess if you think about it we are the ones, along with china and most other countries that are in the wrong not your government who is doing all it can to reduce emissions. one thing that i think the "green folks" are overlooking though is the fact that in past times when we used wood and coal fires to keep warm and cook with, even with many fewer people in the world we were polluting the air far more then we are now, technically (not taking into consideration pollution from the past) we are cleaner now then we ever have been, if the world were to just even have the emissions standards of the US which isn't so great at all we would still be slowly improving our air quality in comparison to the past. there being way over the top about it over there.
Reply:i would think that it is your government that is greedy. i am american and i know ours is corrupt and greedy.





many americans i know are looking to immigrate elsewhere . we are tired of being spied on , which I understand is a problem in your country too.





if an American leaves to immigrate , we are charged taxes for 10 years as a penalty. Of course, we owe the new country we are living in taxes too. It's insane , the money control countries have other their citizens.





Sorry to hear that that the taxes are sooo high there. I feel for you , but know that the economy here is falling / there are problems here too. Not sure where a good place to live is, but I am looking !
Reply:Because us Brits keep voting for politicians who promise " we won't screw you this time". Evolution has created a breed of human that actually wants to be screwed, they live on a small island in the north Atlantic controlled by the USA.
Reply:I genuinly believ the reason British drivers are prosecuted and presecuted is because its a money making ploy by the labour government.
Reply:just a way for this govt. to screw even more money out of us!!.
Reply:Well if no-body did anything we wouldn't be here in 10 years time anyway.


Is today's environmental movement corporate America's new eco-friendly right hand? Look for the green tag.

According to EcoWorldly, since 2007, food riots have occured in Mexico, India, Morocco, Egypt, China, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Uzbekistan, Indonesia, Yemen, Guinea, Cameroon, Burkina Faso, Mauritania and Senegal. Countries have stopped allowing food exports.


Here in America the environmentalists are lobbying nonstop for more programs to TURN MORE FOOD INTO GASOLINE MORE EFFICIENTLY. Oil barons of old are tied by the hip to the new green industry corn barons of 2008-2009. Preventing a possible 1 to 3 degree temperature rise in a hundred years is the mission. While in Haiti they feed their kids MUD CAKES.





RESPONSE SO FAR. All those studies are a lie.





Well, there is a World Bank report that came out just this morning suggesting worldwide clamaty. They are not usually willing to lie for the powerless and the starving of the world but they were more compassionate than the environmental movement.


This has truely been a sad, rough year for humanity.

"Here in America the environmentalists are lobbying nonstop for more programs to TURN MORE FOOD INTO GASOLINE MORE EFFICIENTLY."





We most certainly are NOT doing that. The agribusiness lobbyists are, and politicians from corn producing states are, and Auto companies like Chevy are using it as a marketing ploy, but ACTUAL ENVIRONMENTALISTS ARE AGAINST CORN BASED ETHANOL.





A small chunk of the environmental movement is comprised of members of the corporate community who are using increased environmental awareness as a tool for marketing their product. But to characterize the entire movement, which comprises people from around the globe, in such a limited capacity is a real insult. Oh, and industrial agricultural corporate growers or "corn Barron's" are about as far from the environmental movement as you can get without physically beating eagles to death or dumping dioxin directly into nursery schools.





Real environmentalists say: "Fork Corn Ethanol".
Reply:Climate change is a money and power grab scheme by bottom feeder politicians and power brokers. It's nothing to do with ecology and everything to do with money.





Con artists like Gore have enriched themselves on this issue, taking home Oscars, Nobel Prizes and millions of dollars. Meanwhile, evangelical leaders are setting up their flocks for extreme fleecing by leftist politicos like Barack Obama, who will appeal for Christian votes by talking in glowing, biblical-sounding terms about "being good stewards of God's creation."





Here is truth about global warming:





Global warming is one-half of the climatic cycle of warming and cooling.


The earth's mean temperature cycles around the freezing point of water.


This is a completely natural phenomenon which has been going on since





there has been water on this planet. It is driven by the sun.


Our planet is currently emerging from a 'mini ice age', so is


becoming warmer and may return to the point at which Greenland is again usable as farmland (as it has been in recorded history).


As the polar ice caps decrease, the amount of fresh water mixing with oceanic water will slow and perhaps stop the thermohaline cycle (the oceanic heat 'conveyor' which, among other things, keeps the U.S. east coast warm).


When this cycle slows/stops, the planet will cool again and begin to enter another ice age.





It's been happening for millions of years.





The worrisome and brutal predictions of drastic climate effects are based on computer models, NOT CLIMATE HISTORY.


As you probably know, computer models are not the most reliable of sources, especially when used to 'predict' chaotic systems such as weather.





Global warming/cooling, AKA 'climate change':


Humans did not cause it.


Humans cannot stop it.
Reply:It is sad that socialism has progressed. The worst thing for the poor is for socialism to metastasize. The green movement is obviously tied to socialism more than corporations. Some corporations have seen the opportunity to make a buck by capitalizing on the green fad. Much of the food crisis is caused by the failure of the rice crop in Asia. I am not a big ethanol bio-fuel proponent but the high costs are probably only temporary since there is plenty of land that is not being farmed. Our best bet is to let the free markets work. Subsidies for ethanol and bio-fuels are not free market solutions and are therefore bound to have numerous problems. That is the real lesson IMO.


How long do I have to wait to get a home return permit to go to China?

My family submitted our formal application for the green card and got our receipt in late August. I have already gotten my work permit, but I'm wondering if anyone knows how long I'll have to wait to get my "home return permit" (Home Visit Permit 回乡证) to go visit China?

How long do I have to wait to get a home return permit to go to China?
Under normal circumstances you should check this with the Chinese Embassy of the country of your residence,if you want you can also contact the Public Security Bureau of the place in China where you gave your contact information.They take 2-3 months to process such applications but under compelling conditions they do expedite the process.
Reply:I do not believe that you need any such documents!





If you have valid Chinese Passport, you can got visit China any time!





Before you become a Foreigner (meaning you have a foreign country's passport), Chinese government always consider you as a Chinese, and you can go home any time!
