    Air Pollution

    On 2nd February 2020 (Sunday) at 9 pm Skopje was ranked sixth in the list of cities with the most polluted air. The pollution index was 170, and at the top of the list was Hanoi, Vietnam.

    On the website AirVisual, a specialized online air monitoring station, the rankings are based on data collection from measuring stations set up in world cities facing poor air quality.

    The capital's measuring stations measured PM10 particles at 700 micrograms per cubic meter. In Novo Lisiche on 03.02.2020, the measuring station at 19 pm showed 218 micrograms/m3. Meanwhile, in Crniche the measuring station showed 49 micrograms/ m3, while in Karposh 99 micrograms/ m3.

     

    Failure to take action on such a serious problem should not be tolerated, especially as there are experts in the country with relevant proposals in this area. At the same time, Macedonia is not the first country in the world to face air pollution and should use the good practices of other countries to solve this problem.

    The air in Macedonia is alarmingly polluted. This is indicated by measuring stations that almost daily record pollution that is higher than allowed. The World Bank analysis shows that highly industrialized centers such as Skopje, Bitola (energy), Kavadarci (metallurgy) and Miladinovci (crude oil refining) contribute significantly to poor air quality.

    The authorities of the City of Skopje are proposing measures that would contribute to reducing pollution, and we, the people need to be more aware in order to reduce the air pollution. Some of the measures to reduce pollution are:

    • Air filters on factory chimneys
    • Reducing the use of firewood for heating
    • Using public city transport and
    • Planting as much greenery in the urban environment.

    For this purpose, on 21st February 2020 students from 3rd to 9th grade in our school marked this holiday with the thought of Blaze Koneski as a motto: "We should value our language, if we do not want to self-humiliate ourselves". They presented their works in the school office. The theme of this competition "Mother tongue – the spiritual treasure that is worth keeping and nurturing" made the students think and write on the subject and they received awards for their works.
