Who has longer

In Krasnoyarsk, the dirtiest air on the planet, but the governor notes a completely different record - the height of the flagpole above the city

Krasnoyarsk again near Snog. Gorodes do not recommend leaving the house and opening the windows. They also advise to wash the floors more often and do wet cleaning. The regime of adverse weather conditions (NMU) of the first degree of danger has been introduced for three days: from 19 hours on February 10 to 19 hours on February 13. This is reported by the Central Siberian Department of the Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring. These weather conditions are unfavorable for scattering harmful impurities in the air, that is, for all calms - this is normal, and Krasnoyarsk feels best in a storm wind that takes the stench of thermal power plants and factories with small dogs.

In addition to Krasnoyarsk, the Black Heaven regime was also announced on February 10 in four cities of regional subordination: Minusinsk, Achinsk, Nazarovo and Lesosibirsk. And in two cities of Khakassia - Abakan and Montenegrin.

There is nothing to breathe. The calm does not allow the emissions of the world's largest aluminum factory, smelting 1.015 million tons of metal annually - it occupies the first place in the city among stationary sources of emissions. In second place - coal TPP. All this is a private business (Rusal and SGK), it flourishes and increases capacities, the flow of ecological refugees from the city and, according to the government deputy (Rospotrebnadzor and the Ministry of Natural Resources), is growing in parallel.

cancer diseases, respiratory diseases, circulatory systems grow; Gasification is not threatened by the city suffocating in Sol.

Prior to this, the NMU regime was announced in Krasnoyarsk from 13 p.m. on February 1 and lasted a week. A two -day respite is literally, and again. During the winter, the NMU mode was declared 7 times.

And traditionally these days, Krasnoyarsk leads the top of the cities of the world with the dirtiest air: Airvisual monitoring fixes the momentary state of air. The data from international observation networks for our state did not serve before the argument, now even more so, however, the Gorosans of the Russian Federation themselves from year to year to state the leadership of Krasnoyarsk in different anti -ratings of the purity of air. And although state bodies measure and fix far from everything that is thrown into the air with energy and industry, even in these curly reports and government depots there are permanent excesses of maximum permissible concentrations (MPCs) of carcinogens, other extremely dangerous substances at times and ten times.

In general, at least in some way we are ahead of the planet, and this indicator is unchanged from year to year, stable. However, the Governor of the USS for all sorts of records for all sorts of records for some reason just in a two-day pause in Smog celebrated a completely different one. And extremely doubtful. Record length , excuse me, the height of the flagpole (100 meters), established this winter in Krasnoyarsk, although in St. Petersburg Zenit is exactly higher (105 m.). But in Russia there are many different “record books”: private shops that work mainly according to the Tormoning Fakel model: in the 90s this international award for a feasible cash contribution was not awarded to whom. And after all, the first business was even trumped by businessmen and politicians, until the competitors found the same “torch”.

So, representatives of one of the books of Russian records arrived in Krasnoyarsk and solemnly handed two certificates to the Governor of USS. It is clear that in the local media this sounded as "the official recognition of our flagpole is the highest."

One trouble - in the smog, that is, in calm, the tricolor is raised to the full height, not afraid that the wind will tear it. But the flag is not visible, because - I could. When the wind comes, the Gosflag is lowered to the middle, as in mourning. So that it does not break. Also a unique phenomenon: in what other state the Gosflag is led every now and then by the will of the wind? But this record has not yet been marked.
