China’s Brilliant Reforesting Scheme: Paint The Hillside Green

February 22, 2008

China is joining Tara Reid in going Green, but their definition of Green is “coat an entire hillside with oil based green paint.” A town in Southwest China requested their government green up an exposed hillside overlooking their town. They wanted them to plant some grasses and bushes to vegetate the slope. In a brilliant stroke of Chinese Govermentism, $60,000 of green paint (think Sherman Williams) and labor was spread out on the hillside.

It kind of looks like an exposed Kryptonite vein. Blech.
