the the union said a saver and her 2 children alia and dearest love on their way to their grandmother valentino this sunday is their only free day. they hope the winds will be good today. the air, their grandmother's isn't too unbearable. valentino lives in the town of nova, she provo, julia said, save i grew up here, but eventually the stench made her leave up with them because of all i will tell nearby. nearby in this case is just 500 meters from her old house. the alex inskeep, it in the town of nova approval, is one of dozens of garbage dumps on the outskirts of moscow expense. 30 to hector's or 45 soccer fields. are you said to

see this is on sundays. distension outside was so bad that she could not know windows with my eyes were done than my throat would. i not feel knows yes. when you use children also started feeling sick. often she took action in the family, left nova approval and moved to clean 7 kilometers away when the cost of the youngest was always sick. one day there patricia told me your children have rattling sound in their lungs. i don't think long then i started looking for an apartment clean after the moon. we went to the same doctor and surprise, surprise. long rationally had disappeared. couldn't she asked how? and i said simple. we moved some 3800 kilometers to the east auto mechanic metalli. shesta cough stumbles upon what looks like the marble slabs that they aren't. italy shasta cough lifting casela off the

siberia its nose here all winter. the snow the falls from the sky. here is often black from the coldest colors, vitalis house and garden shades of black gray and white moves that will go out and sprinkle ground up pencil lead onto it, or you can the same effect. you see here, black on white. so when i ask is a medium sized city, it's economy relies on open mining. pollution is dramatic. the city is located in close bass, a coal mining region referred to as russia's black heart. on some windy days, the smoke so bad. residents say they struggled brief, according to studies by an n g o. twice as many people die for spirit treat disease and here and elsewhere in russia. italy shesta cough and his neighbors have had enough of living conditions

and silly ask why. one and a half years ago, they filmed the last night and saw to sign him in canada. we do not want our children to die of cancer caused by the terrible environment. i'll tell you, i will get some would you let us dawning was the canadian prime minister was very far away, reacted to a video faster than our own authority to mess foreign leaders ignored. and then later our governor react only is that right is of the home country and the cruise bass region reverted broad deal at the school was 4 and a half 1000 kilometers away in southern russia. real. both andries had different concerns with the moscow going to it. so when no, no water comes from the tap and we put our cells out here. and this is what comes out in the village maturing squire, there's

a joke that goes cocoa coffee, who cares if it comes from the tap, maturing school in life directly along the coupon river in the region of the same name with this browns to water that comes directly from the cuban a far cry from the clear filtered water you would expect to come out of pipes. you can use it for washing or drink it. we have to let it stand at home and then boil it. like carrying buckets of brown water from the roadside pump has long been a daily task for residence of lamont street and mit shooting squire. this 2 story house does have water pipes. the pressure is often so low that they prefer to pump their water themselves. it doesn't matter where you can to anyway, that's all the water in mature and coil comes from the coupon. when it's flooding,

the water turns into grayish brown sludge, which then into maturity, coils, pipes, nearly unfiltered. residents leave the water to stand large containers, so the dust settling afterwards, the water is a bit cleaner, but just a bit. the even re balcony is retired. he can't remember the last time he drank pretty clean water from the top. credit. the same stuff in knitting has since 975, and that's how long we've had the struggle. some people boil the water, but i've done it. i need to pick just that it's cook with failure, with it only when it gets really grows to drink, clean store, bought drinking water in the last quarter who it's

doable. waters expensive, and the pension doesn't have much money. even belkin has to spend up to $3000.00 roubles a month on purchased drinking water. that's a 3rd of his pension, which is barely enough to make ends meet back to the federal saver family on their way to visit her mother with her children. julia meets neighbors campaigning against the landfill. they managed to pressure the environmental agency to measure the quality of the tests revealed a level of hydrogen sulfide 25 times higher than what is permitted. the activists went to court, but to no avail. the stinking mountain is garbage and the other symposium is one of several rushers plagues by waste disposal problem. only 4 percent of waste is recycled and 2 percent is incinerated. the rest is simply dumped with nearly $70000000.00 tons of waste a year. the largest country in the world is drowning and garbage and

environmentalists warm that the landfills around moscow, a ticking time bombs, the direction of the winds is a determining factor jury duty a fed a service visit to see her mother. 67 year old valentino pulver has not moved. celia get some vitamins, come drink some tea and have some sausage, but hurried over the kids. happy to see their grandmother, but because her house is next to the dump. the trips are kept brief to limit the danger i found out at this school. sometimes when i lie down, i feel like someone's poured water down my throat. i can hardly breathe. coughing carefully to the cuts. immature in many are resigned to the cloudy tap water. older resident still recall how during soviet times, those soft costs here, state owned large scale farm with its own canned food factory. the government last

time the controlled food production. but ensured that the water used for the factory underwent of least rudimentary cleaning. the pen, the soviet union collapsed with the old purification system. from last believe them ventures up, but they used to be big containers at the exit of the town where water from the river stood before being conveyed to the village bustle. with scarlet shore, new leaders came and ravaged the system and now now these containers of long stopped working and no longer able to clean the river water. according to an audit by the nature conservation authority, some water pipes in the town of maturity, sequoia and now 90 percent cloaked with mud from the river, plus the to the river is polluted. environmentalists, action is urgent. the required against bacteria and chemicals. we asked local

authorities whether such measures were planned and what pollution levels are the receive no response. the, the operators of the garbage dumped in nova, she also failed to respond to our inquiry, me. but we did receive a response from the vice governor of the coast pass region, stating the authorities were doing everything possible to minimize mining petition from resettling households to installing modern air filter systems. me the bad quality still makes life and cellular current economy to cough learns is living from mining. nearly half industrial waste in russia is here in this region could pass in siberia kiss eli, often at 86000 residence, is one of the hardest in cities. many waste products from cold production contained

burning toxic and regular active substances. those who live here refuse to leave their health in the hands of coal produces and protest time and time again. even if it does little to change things, the vice governors words may sound promising that they ignore reality. that auto mechanic baton shesta cough was sell because of the valley just couldn't care. less about all this black snow for mining really like many here he wants to leave. that's not easy. providence really? or i'd like to sell my house. i can't feel if you can get rid of an apartment, but not a whole house running for 2. and only 2 people have responded. even rebuttal, kin doesn't want to move away. he's come to terms with the bad water quantity. a

few times a month he treats himself too expensive, drinking water in store bought water jugs. look at the, make sure not to heat too much, because then i get so thirsty up, you have to drink the dirty river water. although i'm quite used to it now, as long as it is hollowed. meanwhile, the crews past government attempts to increase coal production, and the alex in ski pit and nova approval is set to be expanded. plus water consumption will rise in maturity, coin during the hot summer, meaning more brown sludge from the cuba. and so all 3 environmental issues will persist here in russia. ah, how can we make fish farming effective and ecological to entrepreneurs from gonna
