EMERCOM warned Astrakhan about the danger of burning garbage in the country
With the arrival of autumn, country weekends often go to bring the site in order: you have to rake overfished foliage and get rid of accumulated waste.
Many summer residents choose the most unpretentious option - burning garbage in the fire. However, this practice is fraught with the fact that the flames will spread to large areas.
Experts warn: at this time, the wind becomes stronger, and from only a small spark, the fire can quickly engulf wooden buildings, fences and allotments of neighbors. The result is material losses and a real danger to human lives.
Another risk is associated with high humidity. When raw branches, leaves, old boards with paintwork or plastic objects fall into the fire, a kind of “cover” is formed: the smoke does not rise up, but spreads near the ground. As a result, country villages are enveloped with a thick caustic cloud, which contains substances harmful to health.
Specialists of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia in the Astrakhan region advise to focus on other recycling options - for example, send waste to compost or order their removal.
Do not forget about the rules of fire safety and keep on your site means to extinguish the fire.
