The situation in the Liopetriou-Avgorou area is suffocating, as according to complaints, the fumes from the burning of garbage in the illegal dog park have permeated the surrounding area, especially Liopetri, since last Monday, April 1st, as the Environmentalist Movement states in their announcement.
According to the Environmental Movement "there is a strong protest from the people of the region about the fumes. The environment department official said that the problem cannot be solved easily because they do not know who is lighting the fires. Several times they have issued fine orders to the communities and have taken legal action.
As the Environmentalists Movement - Citizens' Cooperation we support the residents' protests about the intense fumes and call on the relevant departments to take their responsibilities, as we notice that the problem cannot be solved by the communities because they do not have the funds to clean the area or other even illegal small dumps. People don't know where to throw their garbage and unfortunately they resort to where there is more".
