Imported air would be the solution to the problem of atmospheric China? Some believe so. Last month, about 500 containers of fresh air taken from the Rocky Mountains of Banff, Canada, were sold in the country in two weeks.
Air Vitality, company responsible for the bottled air, said he has had a huge demand of Chinese customers. According to Harrison Wang, director of China operations, the next order can be up to 1,000 units. Each can cost between $ 14 and $ 20, depending on the container size.
Moses Lam, co founder of Vitality Air claimed that "in North America do not give much importance to the fresh air, but in China the situation is quite different." Last week, Beijing issued its first red alert because of poor air quality and even schools were closed.
"If China can import food, water, why could not they have the right to import the air?" Lam said. However, for Professor Polytechnic University of Hong Kong, Wallace Leung, said that buying air tanks does not represent a practical solution to the problem of air pollution in China and that the best solution would be to improve air quality by filtering it.
Lam says that travels to Banff twice a week and spends 10 hours bottling the air, "It is time consuming because it is bottled by hand. We are dealing with fresh air and do not want to use machines in production. "
