Thousands of dead fish show up in Pudong

This doesn't give us much confidence about the water quality in Shanghai: thousands of fish suddenly died yesterday in a Pudong river, according to Xinmin. About 10,000 dead river carp floated down the 1,500-meter stretch of Sanlin river to Sanlin Port and have started to decay and stink. The residents around the area at first started picking up the carp to eat, coming with barrels and plastic containers, but became scared when more and more fish showed up dead. Right now, the district environmental protection authority is saying that all the fish died thanks to a lack of oxygen - low air pressure and a new pump station could have made the water inhospitable. But they can't be completely sure until actual tests come in. Sounds... fishy. Photo from treehugger
