China erects dome over stinky factory

A Chinese company in the eastern city of Hangzhou has constructed a massive inflatable dome over the site of a closed down pesticide factory. While it covers an area the size of roughly three soccer fields, the 20,000-square-meter polyester dome still covers less that half the contaminated zone. The factory was shut in 2009, but the stench emitted by the soil still forces nearby residents to cover their mouths and noses.
