Here’s an updated list of articles, blog posts, and reports about environmental pollution in Viet Nam. I’ll also include related articles about development. It’s a way for me to track and share them with those who are interested and care about the natural world we all share. They are listed in descending chronological order. Let me know if you have any suggestions. I will also include positive articles because we could all use good news occasionally. (Status: 5.5.22)
