Japan and China have agreed to work together on preventing photochemical smog.
I am not sure what that is...exhaust from your digital camera maybe.
Japan thinks that an increase in China's pollutant emissions is contributing to smog at home.
Japan's Environment Minister and China's state Administration of Environmental Protection smiled, shook hands and showed the world that the two
countries can indeed cooperate.Japan will provide China with equipment for measuring ozone concentration by March, 2008, the end of Japan's fiscal year.
Ozone near the earth's surface is produced by the photochemical of NO2 and other volatile organic compounds. Increased ozone concentrations can destroy human lungs and hinder plant growth.
Increased Chinese photochemical smog can harm their neighbor Japan.
Uh...the best thing to come out of this agreement is that Japan and China are working together...not necessarily to get something done.
