A couple of Chinese newlyweds decided to
take their wedding photos in a dark and striking direction to protest
their country’s out-of-control pollution. The two lovebirds took their
wedding photos wearing gas masks to shield themselves from Beijing’s
clouds of toxic smog.
Beijing has never been known as
an especially clean city, but the toxic industrial clouds hovering over
the city in the past few months have forced the government to impose
limits on factories and power plants in the Beijing area. The level of
toxic PM 2.5 particles, which are small enough to enter the bloodstream
through the lungs, is more than 20 times higher than acceptable norms.
Beijing’s residents are now
forced to wear dust masks to preserve their health, but this couple
donned gas masks to underscore the fact that the city they were married
in is becoming toxic and uninhabitable. (h/t: boredpanda)
