Passage 1
Energy use and air pollution have been synonymous in China for
decades, especially in urban areas. (66) Fifteen or 20 years
ago in China’s northern cities, such as Shenyang, air pollution was
characterized by decreased visibility caused by high levels of particulates and
sulfur dioxide (SO2). Although conditions have improved in modern
cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, China still has three of the ten most
polluted cities in the world and hundreds of cities that are not in compliance
with the World Health Organization (WHO) air quality guidelines.
(67) More than 120 cities have populations of more
than one million, and by the end of the twenty-first century, 10 to 20 cities
will have populations of more than 10 million. Rapid urbanization will challenge
governments at all levels, not only to provide basic services to growing urban
populations, but also to modernize, to continue to develop economic

But the announcement made this week by Woo Suk Hwang, of Seoul National University in South Korea, and his colleagues, is serious. It is the first to achieve the accolade of publication in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. Dr. Hwang s work appears in Science.
The terminology of human development has become slippery over the past few years, in the hands of both "life-begins-at-conception" propagandists who want to stop this sort of research, and publicity-seeking scientists who have claimed more than they have really achieved. What Dr. Hwang and his team have created is not what developmental biologists would normally refer to as an embryo. But it is a genuine scientific advance.
