Ecological problems in Saint-Petersburg

- POLLUTION IN ITS MANY FORMS (AIR, WATER AND LAND POLLUTION)

- NOISE FROM CARS, BUSES

- DESTRUCTION OF GREEN ZONES

The most serious problems in Saint-Petersburg today are:

THE MOST SERIOUS REASONS OF WATER POLLUTION ARE:

- INDUSTRIAL AND CHEMICAL WASTES;- DOMESTIC WASTE;- USE OF DETERGENTS FOR CLEANING OUR HOUSES AND CARS;- DRAINAGE WATERS FROM IRRIGATED LANDS.

Water pollution

AIR POLLUTION IS THE RESULT OF OUR USE OF CHEMICALS. FACTORIES AND PLANTS RELEASE POISONOUS CHEMICALS INTO THE AIR. BUT THE MOST OF THE POLLUTION IN OUR CITY COMES FROM CARS AND BUSES.

Air pollution

CARS NOT ONLY POLLUTE THE AIR. THEY CREATE A VERY STRONG NOISE, WHICH IS VERY HARMFUL FOR OUR EARS. AND IF NOTHING IS DONE, PEOPLE FROM THE CHILDHOOD CAN HAVE PROBLEMS WITH HEARING!

Noise from cars, buses

THE DESTRUCTION OF GREEN ZONES IS ANOTHER PROBLEM NOWADAYS. FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS, PEOPLE HAVE CUT DOWN AND BURNT THE BIG AREAS OF FORESTS. THIS MEANS THERE ARE FEWER TREES AND, OF COURSE, MORE CARBON DIOXIDE! IT CAN CAUSE THE PROCESS OF GLOBAL WARMING OR THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT.

Destruction of green zones

- THE FACTORIES AND PLANTS MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE CITY- GREEN ZONES MUST BE SAVED AND CREATED. THE GREENERY MUST BE PROTECTED AND INCREASED - WE MUST UTILIZE THE WASTE- WE MUST THROW AWAY LESS RUBBISH AND USE LITTER BINS - NOISE MUST BE REDUCED- WE MUST GO TO WORK ON FOOT (NOT BY CAR OR BUS) OR WE CAN USE A BICYCLE FOR A LONG DISTANCE.
