An environmental protest in China was aggressively put down at the weekend, with a heavy police presence continuing for days to prevent further demonstrations in an unusually heavy-handed response.
The protests started after the south-western city of Chengdu was shrouded in thick smog, with some residents place pollution masks on statues. An unknown number were taken away by police, with security forces in riot gear seen in the city’s downtown shopping area.
Toxic clouds of smog are regular features of China’s major cities, with some studies showing pollution has caused about 1 million premature deaths a year.
