It’s flu season. Time to either protect yourself from getting sick, or, if you are already 
sick, prevent your illness from spreading to others. Hence, sickness masks. But not everyone who wears sickness masks are, well, sick! Sometimes their faces are cold. Sometimes the air is dry. But now, with pollution being recognized as a big problem in China, some folks are wearing masks to filter the air. While the masks might look adorable, pollution isn’t pg123 cute. At all.

Cute masks like this aren’t exactly new, nor are they the only kind worn (people wear white ones, too!). But whatever their shape or color, the masks are perhaps a reminder of how worried some people are about the air quality.
