A river in the Chinese province of Henan has turned a brilliant hue of red. The striking change was due to the dumping of dye from two illegal workshops in the city of Luoyang.
It's unclear at present how long it will be before the Jian River is back to normal, or whether the chemical dyes have health implications -- though the waters are likely to scare off many potential swimmers.
