【新唐人2014年02月27日讯】最近，中国有关雾霾的话题，又一次成为舆论关注的焦点，持续雾霾天气再度席卷大陆，受影响的人口高达6亿人。但就在民众为终日笼罩在雾霾之下，而无比焦虑的同时，中共少将张召忠爆出惊人之语，说“雾霾是对美国激光武器的最好防御”，引发网友各式吐槽和炮轰，专家也对这个观点啼笑皆非。
中共环保部2月23号通报，近日中东部地区大部分省份出现灰霾，影响面积约为143万平方公里，约占国土面积的15%，重霾面积约为81万平方公里，主要集中在北京、河北、辽宁、山西、山东、河南等地，北京、天津、河北及周边地区共20个城市发生重度以上污染。
中央气象台20号到24号连续5天发布霾黄色预警。预测，这次雾霾要一直持续到2月27号才会结束。
北京市教师张先生：“北京一直雾霾都挺严重，不是说就这两天。没有哪天低于200（浓度）的，都是200以上。很难看到太阳这是事实。我相信天天会有人为这个事情而纠结。”
越来越多的中国民众因为雾霾的侵袭而病倒。上海社科院发布的蓝皮书指出，北京的污染严重，已经接近不适合人类居住的程度。中国工程院院士钟南山甚至警告，严重的空气污染，危害比“非典”还严重。除了众所周知的呼吸道疾病，雾霾的危害其实是多方面的，包括对神经系统、泌尿生殖系统、内分泌系统、心脑血管系统等造成伤害，更会危及子孙后代。
台湾大学大气系教授陈正平：“主要吸进还是对器官跟肺泡、呼吸系统会有腐蚀的作用，那如果雾霾里面还有一些重金属成分的话，也会对内脏有影响，”
张先生：“因为我是学化学工程嘛，这个东西是对你基因产生一个影响，可能在下一代、或者再下一代。这就像当初，我们都称伦敦为雾都，你看它几年之后，它的后代繁衍出来，才会经常得哮喘病。”
美国《纽约时报》报导，由于空气污染，中国北方人的预期寿命，平均比南方人少5.5年。也有调查发现，北京市近十年的肺癌患病率增加了60%。
台湾“清华大学核子工程与科学研究所”教授王竹方，研究的专长为环境科学、和空气污染。
台湾清华大学核子工程与科学研究所教授王竹方：“如果只是一次两次，但可能你过一段时间，人体有自己会修复的机制。可是如果说你在这个环境里面常常这样子的话，空气污染比较严重的这种都会地区，通常来讲，因为这种呼吸器官不好，而造成这种死亡率会增加。另外就是小孩子的话，气喘、过敏概率就会很多。”
在大陆民众身体健康甚至生命都受到了雾霾威胁的情况下，中共海军少将张召忠竟在《央视》的采访中声称， “雾霾对激光武器是最好的防御，激光武器最怕雾霾。”他还说﹕ “PM2.5达到400、500、600的时候，对激光（雷射）武器的阻止最大了，根本穿透不了。”张召忠的这番话引来了网民的一片嘘声。
网民吐槽“雾霾也是攻击人民身体健康的最好武器！美国的激光武器还没打过来，雾霾已撂倒中国好几千万了。” “难道中国要用雾霾来抵挡激光武器吗？难不成中国人必须要永远生活在雾霾中？”
科研专家也对张召忠的言论感到啼笑皆非。
王竹方：“是没有错，空气中如果有这种雾啊，或者雾霾这样形成的时候，那它会对镭射，就是我们讲的激光，就会造成它发散，可是我是觉得这个想法有点…有点…..我们不能因为这样子，所以我们就用这个雾霾。你要让激光不作用，或者丧失它的作用，其实有很多其他方法不需要雾霾嘛。”
也有网民讽刺的说：“烟雾弹将军，我们总算是为雾霾找到合理借口了！‘海带’防潜艇，雾霾防激光，高，实在是高！”

PLA Rear Admiral: Smog Best Shields U.S. Laser Weapons
Mainland China is once again cloaked by smog and
as many as 600 million Chinese have been affected.
While concern over the toxicity of smog is growing,
PLA Rear Admiral Zhang Zhaozhong commented,
“Smog is the best defense against U.S. laser weapons".
Criticisms hit the Internet, and experts shake their heads.
On Feb. 23, smog covered largely central and eastern China,
an estimated 1.43 million square kilometers, accounting for 15%
of mainland China.
Heavy smog swept 810,000 square kilometers, including
Beijing, Hebei, Liaoning, Shanxi, Shandong, and Henan.
Severe pollution is reported in 20 cities, including Beijing and
Tianjin, according to the Chinese environmental bureau.
The Central Meteorological Station has issued the “yellow" smog
alert for 5 days since the 20th and it is anticipated
the pollution will last till the 27th.
Mr. Zhang, a Beijing Teacher: “The smog has been serious in
Beijing. It’s not just for the past two days.
The pollution has been measured at 200 the minimum.
You can barely see the sun for a fact.
I am sure it has troubled many of us everyday."
Many more Chinese have been ill because of the smog.
According to the Blue Book of World Cities (2014) published
by the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, Beijing is on the
verge of being “unfavorable for human living".
Professor of the Chinese Academy of Engineering Zhong Nanshan
has warned the severity of air pollution outweighs that of SARS.
It is detrimental to the respiratory, the nervous, the genitourinary,
the endocrine,and the cardiovascular systems, as well as to future
generations.
Professor JP Chen, Atmospheric Sciences, National Taiwan
University: “The particles we breathe in are corrosive to the
alveoli and the respiratory system.
The heavy metals in the smog will hurt the internal organs."
Mr. Zhang: “I studied chemical engineering. The pollutants
affect the genes, which carry it over to our next generations.
It is like in London, famous for its fog. The younger generations
in London tend to develop asthma."
The New York Times had reported earlier that studies showed
life expectancies are about 5.5 years lower in the north owing
to an increased incidence of cardiorespiratory mortality.
There are also studies showing that Beijing has seen lung
cancer rates go up 60 percent in the last 10 years.
Professor Chu-Fang Wang from the Institute of Nuclear
Engineering and Science, National Tsinghua University,
is a specialist in environmental science and air pollution.
Professor Chu-Fang Wang: “Once or twice exposure could be
taken care of after a while by our repair mechanism in the body.
But, for a prolonged exposure, such as in the metropolitan area
with heavy pollution, the respiratory system is generally
affected and mortality is likely to go up.
To the young child, there’ll be higher rates of asthma and allergy."
With health hazards and potentially life threatening smog,
Rear Admiral Zhang Zhaozhong claimed in an interview with
the state media, CCTV, “Smog is the best defense against
laser weapons. Laser weapons are mostly deterred by the smog."
He added: “Measures of PM2.5 at above 400 have the best
resistance to laser weapons. They can’t penetrate."
Zhang Zhaozhong’s remarks quickly earned publicity on the Internet.
One netizen responded, “Smog is the best weapon against
health, too.
Before the U.S. laser weapons hit, smog has killed tens of
millions of Chinese."
“Will China employ smog to shield the laser weapons?
Does it imply that Chinese should live in the smog forever?"
Scientists are amused by Zhang Zhaozhong’s remarks.
Professor Chu-Fang Wang: “It is true that fog and smog can
divert the laser.
But, I just feel this theory is a little…somewhat…we can’t just
use the smog for defense.
There are other means to disable the laser, but not smog."
A netizen mocked: General Smoke Bomb, we have finally
found a legitimate excuse for the smog!
The kelp resists the submarine, the smog fights the laser, excellent!
It is really excellent!
