[comprehensive] I began to remember the beginning of the year for the people's haze data.

Since the United States Embassy was not allowed to publish the Smog Index, our haze warnings have become more scientific.

Now, in order to make the fog and fog warnings more scientific, the China Meteorological Administration has started “self-removing martial arts” and informed its subordinate units in the form of internal notifications. Afterwards, only the fog is forecasted and no further forecast is made.

If this is not the case with the “Ghosts in Meteorology” photo posted on the Internet, I am afraid that people do not know.

As a result, media reports later confirmed the predictions of Song Yingjie, a teacher from the Red Earth Meteorological Network. It was originally caused by the data of the Meteorological Administration and the Ministry of Environmental Protection. In order to make the early warning more scientific, the two companies are negotiating new warning and release mechanisms. .

When the people who eat melons think that they can only see the flowers from the fog, the original truth is still everything is for you.

Making the haze prediction more scientific, there is nothing wrong with it! In the royal capital for free soaking for so many years, I actually responded so slowly, never found that there are actually two departments haze data fight problem, it is not right.

However, from the comments of netizens, I did not find the problem seems to be only one person. Not always, everyone sucks too much and the brain is broken.

It may seem like a false alarm. What everyone is worried about is not that forecast science is not science, but that the meteorological department is no longer forecasting smog in order to “shame” it.

As for the weather forecasters and the Ministry of Environmental Protection, who forecast is more accurate and scientific, as long as there is no significant difference, who cares? You only need to forecast when there is no time, do not hide, and everyone's visual cells and respiratory tract feel too close on the line. The haze warning data caliber is inconsistent, not the public pain point.

The issue that deserves more investigation is that why such a scientific false alarm actually causes a high degree of vigilance in society.

To answer this question, I couldn't help but miss the era of the previous years when everyone was free to release PM2.5 data.

Around 2010, after haze and PM2.5 entered the public view, it quickly attracted wide-ranging citizen participation. Pan Shiyi took a detector and measured where he went. As a result, netizens with good results also went to Pan Shiyi’s Wangjing soho site to test the air quality. In short, everyone did a good job.

Forced by the pressure of the general public to detect PM2.5, the Chinese environmental protection department began to regularly disclose PM2.5 data. But soon, the government issued an order prohibiting other organizations and individuals from publishing air quality data.

It was held by public opinion that the goal was mainly for the U.S. Embassy. The issue of the PM2.5 data released by the U.S. embassy can be considered another matter. However, this measure also incidentally sacrifices the rights of the people to supervise.

Citizens are concerned about the safety of water, air, soil, and food around them. This is a natural right. Clean air, as a public good, of course, also requires public participation and public supervision. The spontaneous public announcement of the air quality around them is a tool for public supervision.

The civil air quality data may not be accurate, but the law can stipulate its own responsibility and, if noted, these data are only reference values, and it is not unacceptable.

One of the great benefits of allowing everyone to publish air quality testing data is that we don’t have to worry about the fraud of data from local governments and officials. Because it is possible that there will be the same civilian monitoring equipment next to each official monitoring point. Moreover, there is no need to worry. The data released by the Bureau of Meteorology is still published by the EPA. Many data have been verified, naturally there will be accurate data.

The prohibition of the release of air quality data by the public means that they are deprived of the right of some citizens to monitor and participate in air pollution control. When the haze warning and forecast data is monopolized by the government, it naturally loses its authority. No one would really believe in his own words.

The official monopoly of air quality data releases also turns haze and other data into a kind of official game.

Forced by the pressure from the central government on environmental protection, some local officials began to find ways to falsify data. The air detection station is installed in the park. Sprinkling water and spraying around the monitoring station are all pediatrics. The reality of haze data falsification is far more exciting than the movie.

Last year, the leader of the Xi'an Municipal Bureau of Environmental Protection Anbu Branch actually stole the key to the monitoring point, and remembered the code, using cotton yarn to block the sampler. Only one flight inspection by the Ministry of Environmental Protection found the problem. The story of Canberra.

The meteorological and environmental protection departments fight and warp the haze warning data, which is another game of digital games. However, no matter how they play, these things have nothing to do with the people.

Air pollution control is not just a unilateral responsibility of the government. It requires the participation of the society and the public. However, the most regrettable situation now is that the government not only likes to carry out large packages, but also restricts the participation of citizens, and it finally becomes hazy. Everyone is left to speak for everyone.
