The river is no place for pumpkins': Environmentalist opposes deputy's proposal to throw vegetables into the East River in an anti-Halloween fight cannot be considered harmless fish food or a way to "return organic matter to nature." This opinion is shared by the chairman of the non-profit partnership "District Association of Environmentalists" in Yekaterinburg, Yevgeny Tyulkanov. As he explained to Zakor. RU, although pumpkin is an organic product, it quickly begins to rot in the reservoir and causes a multifaceted damage to the water quality, to the fish, to the aquatic plants and to the entire ecosystem of the river. "When a pumpkin decomposes in water, dissolved oxygen is actively consumed, causing oxygen starvation in fish and other aquatic creatures. Residues rich in nitrogen and phosphorus increase biogenic pollution and trigger algal blooms, which causes the water to become cloudy, its quality deteriorates and the natural balance of bacteria creates a disruption of bacteria and natural balance. "Mold can cause diseases in fish and spread to the coastal vegetation, and fruits accumulating on the bottom and near the coast are suffocated by local aquatic and coastal plants, depriving them of light and space," explained Tyulkanov. Earlier, Vyacheslav Wagner, a member of the Sverdlovsk Legislative Assembly from United Russia, suggested throwing pumpkins into the East to counter Western traditions of celebrating Halloween. In return, he promised to talk to colleagues and hand out free tickets to cinemas, theaters and other cultural institutions in Yekaterinburg for each reset. We are at MAX | in VK | in OK.
