Flames close to Rome

 

There is bad news in Rome and its surrondings from an environmental point of view. Last week, more than 90 firefighters were on the waste management centre located close to Rome, as flames engulfed the site. The picture above shows the fire in the waste storage facility. It wasn't easy to extinguish. There is evidence that the fire in the Rome's municipal waste produced high levels of emissions of environmetally significant chemical species, such as dioxins.

    1. Unfortunately, it will be a problem for some farmers who live and work there, as they could harvest polluted veggies.
      My family and I are safe. One day after the fire, we had strong wind that help us.
      Thank you for your words, Nicole!

    1. Sono ancora in corso indagini per capire se l'incendio è stato doloso oppure accidentale.

    1. We're in good conditions, thanks, Jan :-) ... strong wind took away polluted air. This was so important.
      Prosecutors are trying to understand the reason of the fire.

      Unfortunately, many bloggers have problems leaving comments.

      Have a nice Sunday!
