New And paper mill processes remained unchanged the whole time?
Didn't think so.

There's so much FUD and counter-FUD when it comes to the environment as both sides (big business, big envrionmentalists) can lay claim to an agenda that is a basic human need - survival.

I don't consider Greepeace right in everything they do, but I do think their capabilities as a 'watchdog' are invaluable.

New I'm sure they have changed
Brandioch was claiming that London was cleaner because it was no longer industrial.

However, if industry has to go away to make a town cleaner, then why is my dad's hometown less polluted now? The industry is still there.

New Industry doesn't have to go away
But it does have to change.

Twas just the (wrong) impression I got from your post was that the mill was still doing the same things, only the river ha automagically improved.

New It is possible to clean up and keep the industries.
It just isn't very common.

It's cheaper to ship them off to other countries will lower wages and fewer environmental protections.

So, most of the industries do that.

But not all.

When I visited China a few years ago, I stepped out of the plane near Beijing and I thot I was looking at a lunar eclipse because the moon was smokey red. It turned out to be the air pollution. The moon was almost directly overhead also.
