Have you heard about the ecological disaster lurking in Berane? The old cellulose and paper factory is hiding dangerous chemical waste that threatens the environment and human health! Environmental protection agencies have been warning for years about piles of flammable and toxic chemicals left forgotten in abandoned warehouses. Yes, you read that right – hazardous substances once used in paper and cellulose production are still poisoning the air and soil, and no one knows how to safely remove them!
A recent fire at the factory’s warehouses only fueled suspicions and fears among residents. The thick black smoke that covered the city was no ordinary smoke – many wonder if toxic chemicals were burning. Although officials claimed only bitumen was on fire, doubts remain and fears of consequences grow.
Former factory workers and experts demand an urgent inspection and thorough check of all warehouses and facilities storing chemicals. It’s not just the paper factory that’s a problem – similar dangers exist in other abandoned industrial sites across northern Montenegro. And what are the authorities doing? It seems everything boils down to criminal complaints gathering dust and ignoring a problem that could have catastrophic consequences.
Will someone finally stop this ecological disaster before it’s too late? Or will we wait for the toxic waste to destroy nature and people’s health? If you have an opinion or are from Berane, drop a comment – let’s expose this ecological shame together!
