After two consecutive nights of high levels of industrial air pollution in Rousse, a protest is being called on 10 September. Danube bridge will be closed, BNR reports.
The protesters say that their demand for cleaner has no colour, only odor – of Bakelite, phenols, hydrogen compounds, alkynes, benzenes, ethylenes, and the whole range of organic and inorganic chemistry.
“The environmental situation in Rousse has been intolerable for 34 years. And it is not a matter of politics or infrastructure, but of the air which 220,000 used to breathe, and only 155,000 breathe now. The toxic air is the reason why so many people have moved away from the city,” said mayor Pencho Milkov. People are unhappy that there is no mobile air monitoring station to track down which enterprises are poisoning the air.
