What's really frightening is...

You know it's gotta be even worse than they're admitting...
Large parts of China's longest river, the Yangtze, have been irreversibly polluted, state media quotes a report as saying.

A huge reservoir created by the Three Gorges Dam - the world's largest hydro-power project - had also been seriously polluted with pesticides, fertilisers and sewage from passenger boats.
Where's an eco-freak when you need one?
