A group of Edinburgh medical students dug up the facts on the Great London Smog of 1952 (the photos are fascinating; areal shock for people who think environmental problems are something new).

Beijing’s poor air quality – 300 or so micrograms of particulate matter per cubic metre – has generated volumes of purple prose, but London’s numbers in the 1950s were consistently above 400, and surged to 1,600 during the Great Smog – more than five times Beijing’s in early August.
