Revelation 16:4 NIV
The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood.

“Chongqing, Southwest China’s largest industrial and commercial center”
probably industrial pollution

The stink of dead fish will not be a new odor to the Chinese, so the millions of fish that will be killed by this pollution probably will not cause any changes along the river. Eventually, the billions of Chinese will end up ‘disposing of the fish kill’. One could hope in cans of fish for North Korean armies.

I thought I read that. The BP oil spill looked something like it too. I’m sure it’s just coincidence.

Satire? Based on what exactly? China’s pollution problem is notorious. It is been said that up to 1/3 of all rivers, lakes, and fresh water sources in China are not even fit for industrial use. That’s pretty bad.

Are there any red algae types? China has a very bad record with industrial pollution, even in their most important waterways. I’d bet on a petchem plant that’s discharging waste illegally.

Maybe they’ve taken a page out of Saddam’s book and are putting dissidents through shredders, just on a Chinese scale. It could be easier to just chum the river than bulldoze for mass graves.

I wonder how long before the Chinese start justifying eating three eyed fish as some sort of delicacy.....
If this is polution the Chinese government just might have figured out a way to keep the population in check...(sarcasm....I think? but who knows with the communists)
