EcoLur
The government has approved the action plan on disseminating knowledge on medicine and hygiene during emergencies conditioned by chemical, radiation factors, and advocating healthy life style. The decision was adopted on 19 April. It should be mentioned that the population in ecological hot spots is exposed to the impact of hazardous objects, where air, soil, water and agricultural products are polluted with mining wastes and dust emissions. However, there are no legislative initiatives that would stimulate the producers to cut down these risks.
Thus, under the Center for Noo Sphere Studies, the territory of Ararat town is contaminated with heavy metals, cement dust, as well as contains toxic mixtures. The attempts of Ararat residents to find out from local doctors what the situation with professional diseases in Ararat looks like are still doomed to failure, as the recent studies were conducted 20 years ago, while people keep on working in the enterprises such as Ararat cement plant, Ararat gold extraction plant, and breathing in cement and cyanic compounds. The other part of the populations has no idea about the risks at all. The shouting group of EcoLur made shooting in the surroundings of Ararat town, where an old man was picking greens from Kakhan reservoir. When EcoLur asked whether he thought of the quality, he said, “It’s very clean, there is no danger.”
