"The pollution has a strong relation with the economic development of the society. We know we have a fast developing speed. In the past 30 years we advanced more than other countries did over a 100-year period. If 100 years of development cause a lot of environmental degradation, here those have happened all in the last 30 years. So the pollution has burst."

"It's useless to wear a facemask. Because you will have to breathe anyway. It is useless, because you still need to live in this environment. I don't have a solution, I just try to minimise the time I spend outdoors."
24. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Liu Xiao, Shanghai resident
"If the outdoor air quality is very bad, I will wear a mask and drink more water. Also people can reduce the amount of smoking."

Therefore, we are very optimistic towards this market and this industry. Because everybody is paying increasing attention to the environment, but also to its own health. So we believe that the market for air purifiers will become bigger and better."
