　　Smog has affected Beijing for at least a week and the Great Hall of the People, where lawmakers will meet next week for the country’s parliamentary session（人大会议）, is hardly visible. Much of north and central China, or one-seventh of the country, was covered in it over the weekend.

　　Responses have included reduced industrial activities, a ban on fireworks and barbecues, raised pollution alerts and reduced vehicles travelling on the roads. Citizens are advised to stay indoors while schools have either stopped classes or suspended outdoor activities.

　　And Chinese officials, after a long period of prioritizing economic development over environmental protection, are now likely to see their future career shaped by how effectively they handle the serious pollution.

　　“Even as a foreigner, I know the pollution has a lot to do with too much focus on economic indicators（指标）in evaluating Chinese officials,” said Florian Kessler, an executive（执行的）director with German law firm WZR Consulting. The German executive speaks fluent Chinese, loves Beijing food and is a big fan of Beijing Guo’an Football Club, but after staying in the city for eight years, he now wants to leave. “Since I smoke, I’m okay with the pollution, but I can’t let my kid breathe in the polluted air. That’s why I’m leaving,” Kessler explained.
