🔎 EXCERPT 🔎
Krasnoyarsk, Russia
The main reason for pollution in Krasnoyarsk is its location, relatively near major industrial centers like Norilsk.
Surprisingly, despite Russia being a major gas exporter, Krasnoyarsk is NOT connected to the Russian gas pipeline system, so often people resort to burning trash to keep warm during winter. Gazprom recently used video footage of the city freezing in winter to warn Europe that the same could happen with Europe due to sanctions — ironic, right? It was one of those times when war propaganda looked like a comedy sketch.
The third reason is the little enforcement of environmental laws (a common factor in almost all cities listed in this article).
Air Quality Index of City: 49.8μg/m, almost 10 times higher than the maximum recommended of 5μg/m
Unsafe drinking water EPI Score: 55.8. 55th place among the 180 countries measured.
Sewage Treatment Percentage: The data for Krasnoyarsk specifically was not available, but in Russia, less than 45% of the sewage is connected to treatment stations. Since Krasnoyarsk is a remote region, one could expect this number to be even smaller.
Kathmandu— Nepal
Kathmandu has no proper disposal system for garbage. Garbage piles up on streets and sometimes, it gets burned by the people living nearby.
On top of that, people throw their waste into rivers and lakes without realizing that they are harming nature and their own environment by doing so.
The lack of proper waste management systems leads to clogged drains, overflowing sewage lines, etc., all of which result in flooding during the monsoon season.
Air Quality Index of City: 50.9 μg/m, more than 10 times higher than the maximum recommended (5μg/m).
Unsafe drinking water EPI Score: 25.9, meaning the 131st place among the 180 countries counted.
Sewage Treatment Percentage: According to IJCRT, less than 7%.
