The Fog That Killed Everyone Who Breathed It

Описание: What happens when the air itself becomes poison? When breathing—that most fundamental act we never think about—becomes the thing that kills you?

December 1952. London. In just five days, a thick fog descended over the city and killed at least 12,000 people. But this wasn't a natural disaster. This was the result of decades of industrial pollution, governmental negligence, and a chilling calculation: that human lives were worth less than economic disruption.

For sixty years, the British government hid the true death toll. Documents were classified. Evidence was suppressed. The real number of victims was buried in archives that required special permission to access. When the truth finally emerged in 2012, it revealed something even more disturbing than the deaths themselves—it revealed the choice that led to them.

This is the story of the Great Smog of London. A story of invisible poison, governmental cover-up, and twelve thousand people who died while authorities watched and chose to do nothing. It's a story about what happens when profit is valued over breath, when industry is prioritized over human life.
