Looking for an excuse the next time you get caught doing something unethical? If you live in a highly polluted city, you may be in luck.

Recent research offers evidence that air pollution inspires unethical behavior, ranging from low-stakes cheating to criminal activity. It reports this is likely due to polluted air increasing personal anxiety, which can throw people's moral compasses out of whack.

I don't think they understand how ethics are supposed to work.

My wife would probably say yes.

I don't think it is bad air. I think that's what happens when you stack people one on top of the other, like cord-wood.  They go crazy. It ain't no surprise. Same thing happens with too many cows in a feedlot, and too many dogs in a kennel.

A man just naturally needs more room than a quarter acre lot in town, not to mention the apartments of the concrete jungles.
