Have you noticed that everybody is a scientist nowadays?  Even the 
armchair kind?  Nothing wrong about being an artist and taking that view 
too.

I live near the second most polluting refinery in California but I can't 
really see the pollution and fortunately for me it blows east most of 
the time and being a couple miles east if it blows south won't hit me.  
The wind almost NEVER blows to the west.

India, OTOH, that land of the Vedas, is so polluted you can see it 
easily and people run around with masks on in the cities.  Around here 
we have "spare the air" days and you can see the brown smog.  Those are 
fortunately rare and people hate them because they feel betrayed they 
aren't offered technology to still allow them to get around without 
polluting while not breaking their bank account.
