Video: The Payback for China's Boom

China is not only the most populous country in the world, and not only one of the fastest growing economies in the world. This is a country of global ecological and social catastrophe, which are becoming the price to pay for rapid growth and rapid development.
Remember the stench that Chinese things of dubious quality make? Even in small quantities. But what if these are whole factories and factories for the round-the-clock production of such products?
Since 2013, smog has become the main problem in the Chinese capital.
The uniqueness of the Beijing smog situation is not the chemicals themselves that get into the air due to the activities of industry and public transport, but the meteorological cycle. It all starts with the invisible process of nucleation (formation of nuclei) of suspended particles (aerosols), the size of which does not exceed a few nanometers. Further, under the condition of calm weather and contact with volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxide from urban transport and sulfur dioxide from local industrial enterprises, suspended particles begin to increase in size.
Scientists also note that the only way to combat smog is to reduce the emissions of the aforementioned substances. However, all of these emissions are associated with an emerging economy, accelerated urbanization and rapid population growth in Beijing. Any slowdown in these processes will have a negative impact on the development of the country, the researchers emphasize.
Another side effect of the "economic miracle" is the exploitation of people.
On July 17 last year, the manager of a private brick kiln in Shanxi province and one of his subordinates were put on trial after the slave labor scandal in brick kilns. The detainees were accused of having 34 workers in real slavery. The factory was a real prison, with watchdogs and regular jaws, whips and beatings from guards to those who tried to escape. 19 workers were injured, at least 13 more - died from hard work from five in the morning for 16-20 hours, burns and poor conditions. The slaves were locked in a bare room, without beds or bunks, and fed with bread and water once a day, during the only 15-minute break.
Schoolchildren from the hinterland of Sichuan have complained to the press that they were forced to work 14 hours or more at an electronics assembly plant, without any pay, allegedly as a "school curriculum." Guangdong girls and young women work hard in factories that make coffee machines and copy machines, collect plastic dolls, make watchbands - all this, at best, for 45 euros a month. Moreover, even with a colossal level of injuries, often being left without fingers, receiving severe burns - but all medical care and all social insurance in local production are limited to a plaster or bandage.
"Our salary is enough, our family will not die of hunger, but we cannot afford to rent a room to live with our child. I call my daughter 2-3 times a week, and every time she asks:" Mom, when are you with Will you come by dad? "And every time I say," We'll be here soon, "says Feng Bing, 27, who works with her husband at Hung Hing Printing Group Ltd, which carries out orders for European toy companies.
The Antai plant, where SACOM employees were also investigating, employs 1,500 people between the ages of 30 and 50. In the "hot" season, management recruits about 300 more temporary workers. They work an average of 140 hours of overtime per month, four times the government's limit.
Economic development is good. Rapid economic development is very good, but very rapid development is already overgrowing with consequences incomparable with efficiency. China is a leader, but this leadership is given by the stratification of society that is critical for the modern world, which results in an actual mockery of the ordinary working class. China's competitiveness is built on slave labor, without which this competitiveness cannot be achieved. And if someone puts China as an example, then you need to clearly understand that such industrial success is necessarily accompanied by legalized slavery and a gray fog.
