HA NOI — Environmentalists reported that pollution has recently worsened in Ha Noi, caused by solid and water waste as well as exhaust fumes.
Contamination has seriously affected local residents' health and daily lives, they said.
Fourteen hospitals in the western part of the city had their waste treatment systems downgraded, and eight central hospitals temporarily treated waste with Cloramin B when their systems failed.
Fewer than 200 of the city's 3,000 enterprises discharging industrial waste have proper treatment systems, and many only use them in the presence of the police and inspectors.
In the past two years, the city authorities have expanded programmes to collect solid waste, burying up to 70 per cent of daily waste and treating water in local lakes. But their efforts have had a limited effect.
One of the main causes of pollution is a simple lack of awareness on the part of local residents, said deputy director of the municipal Department of Natural Resources and Environment Pham Van Khanh.
"Most people think that treating environmental pollution is the Government's work. If they continue to rely on the State like that, the problem cannot be solved," he said.
Over the past two years, the enterprises causing pollution have developed faster than waste treatment schemes, making it difficult to address the issue.
