Environmentalists of Kalmykia returned from another Saturday

Inspectors of the Directorate of Specially Protected Natural Territories of the Republic of Kalmyk at the weekend once again removed household garbage from the steppe.

As noted by the staff, people are taken to the steppe and left under the bushes, trying to hide from view, various waste. Plastic and glass bottles, car tires, bags - all this remains in nature and spoils the environment.

“But a few inspectors can't clean up whole villages indefinitely. Removing waste is important, but even more important is not creating landfills.

We urge residents not to take household garbage into the steppe and not to create unauthorized landfills.

Household waste should be placed only in specially designated places, the directorate stressed.
