I'm sure the residents of Santa Clara and the workers in various campuses will rest more easily knowing that actually, there are much more polluted places globally.

Its not a competition. The article is saying SV is badly polluted. Pointing out that China might be worse just means there's another problem; that's redundant information in the context of talking about SV.

No one said it was, and nothing said detracts from SV. I think it's an interesting question I wouldn't have otherwise thought about. Fifty years from now will China be talking about the same environmental issues we're talking about now? Will it be better or worse?

That's not the point? I'm just saying there's probably a whole lot of those in China. This is a problem to the health of many people.
