Yellow Dust Warning Issued for South Korea

» by in: Environment

The yellow dust season is beginning earlier and earlier in South Korea:

A yellow dust warning has been expanded to include the central parts of the nation — Gyeonggi Province, parts of Gangwon Province and Chungcheong Province.

On Friday morning, the Korea Meteorological Administration issued the yellow dust warning for Seoul and its surrounding areas. A yellow dust watch is also in effect for the Jeolla and North Gyeongsang provinces.

The yellow dust density in Seoul stands between 700 to one-thousand micrograms per one cubic meter, about 20 times higher than normal for this time of year.

The weather agency advised the elderly and people with respiratory illnesses to take extra health precautions.

The intensity of the yellow dust storm is expected to weaken on Saturday.  [KBS Global]

Here is a real man made environmental and public health crisis and yet you hear nothing about it outside of Northeast Asia while billions upon billions is spent on the global warming myth.
