The majority of Western media are simply reluctant to give credit for any progress China has made. When they did, they never failed to emphasize that the air pollution, the products of low quality, the Communist government, the violation of human rights, etc.
It is true that all of these problems exist. They can't be solved in a short time. Many Chinese think that it might take a generation to solve some, two or more generations to solve the others. They also complained a lot, but know it is not an easy job. If anybody cares to look at the history of industrialization and its affects on the society and their people's life, they know Chinese are paying the same price, maybe at less scales. It is unfortunate both for the world and for Chinese themselves. The question is, have we human beings find a feasible alternative approach to achieve the same goal while bypass all the negative stages?
As for air pollution, it is a horror. It is undeniable. Just look at the air condition today in Beijing and New Dehli.

At least the government establishes many monitoring stations and suggests people stay inside. China and India are similar in many aspects. People in both countries, especially the young generations, are working hard to improve their motherlands. But, how often do we hear the media talk about air pollution in India?
