Roma elektromanyetik radyasyon, tvarditsa, Bulgaristan ile bir bölgeye taşındı


İhtilafın konusu (Özet):

Tvarditsa, Sliven Eyaletinde 14.000 nüfusu sayan bir Mnicipation (2011) bunların yüzde 15'i Roma. 70'in başlarında kamu yetkilileri, Tvarditsa'da yaşayan Roma ailelerini belediye mezarlığına yakın olarak şehrin eteklerinde bulunan bir bölgeye yerleştirdiler. Bu önlem, münhasıran Roma nüfusu ile ayrı bir yerleşim olan Iztok mahallesinin kurulmasına yol açmıştır [1]. Tüm yer zaten yüksek voltajlı elektrik pylonları ile çevriliydi ve kanser ve diğer sağlık sorunları riskini artırabilecek elektromanyetik radyasyona neden oldu - birçok çalışma şimdiye kadar göstermiştir [2] [3] [4]. Bazı durumlarda pilonlar, Roman evlerinden birkaç metre uzaklıktadır ve çocuklar için lösemi riskini artıran [4] [7]. İzole edilmiş, yüksek voltaj elektriğinin neden olabileceği tehlikesi hakkında sadece küçük bir yazıtları vardır. Çocukların pilonlara tırmanmasını engelleyebilecek herhangi bir koruma yoktur. Elektrik kabloları, mahallede elektrik şokları riskini artıran her yerde teslim ediyor [resimlere bakınız]. Yerleşimdeki zayıf altyapı, elektrik kablolarının neden olabileceği yangın veya kazalar durumunda ambulans veya itfaiye camileri için ek zorluk yaratır [1]. Sokaklar asfalt değildir ve kaldırımlar, trafik işaretleri ve ışıklar Roma mahallesinde yoktur. Özellikle çocuklar için trafik kazaları riskini yükseltir. Birçok hepatit A vakası dahil olmak üzere sonuçta ortaya çıkan sağlık tehlikeleri ile kaldırma sistemi [1]. Atıkların yanı sıra dışkılama, septik tanklar aracılığıyla tahliye edilir ve toprağı kirletir. Bazı durumlarda kanalizasyon, ayrışmış yiyecek ve plastik malzemelerle birlikte doğrudan yere boşaltılır. Roma mahallesine sadece 6 çöplük yerleştirilir, burada 2000 kişinin yaşarken, Roma olmayan yaşam alanında bu tür eşyaların sayısı daha yüksektir. Kamusal alanda küçük çöp kutuları olan durum benzerdir: Roman mahallesinde yoksuldurlar, çöp kutuları Roma yerleşiminden çıkan sokaklarda kolayca bulunabilir [resimlere bakın]. 0 Zavallı çöp koleksiyonu, mahalledeki evlere ve ana yollara yakın düzensiz atık depolama alanının yaratılmasına yol açar Yeşil alanı ve yerleşimdeki bitki örtüsünü kirletir. Dökümler, yerleşim alanına yakın atıklarla doğrudan temastan korunmayan hamile kadınlar, bebekler ve çocuklar için özellikle tehlikelidir. Avrupa Programı Romact Sakinleri, Roman mahallesinden kaynaklanan bir şehir danışmanı ve 3 sağlık arabulucusu da dahil olmak üzere gayri resmi bir girişim komitesi oluşturdu. Birlikte, atık yönetimini ve çöp tahsilatını ele almak için Tvarditsa'daki yerel yetkililerle bireysel ve halka açık toplantılar başlattılar. Yetkililer, en büyük düzensiz çöplükleri yerleşimden çıkardı, ancak daha sık çöp toplama sağlamadılar. Sonuç olarak, Yolda ve Çimlerde bulunan Roma mahallesinde başka bir çöplük ortaya çıktı. Yüksek voltajlı elektrik pilonları tarafından üretilmiştir. Sakinler, zorunlu tahliye ve ev yıkımı riski nedeniyle sorunu hiç gündeme getirmemişlerdir. Aslında bazı örnekler, kamu yetkililerinin sağlık tehlikelerini Roman ailelerini tahliye etmek için bir bahane olarak kullandığını göstermiştir-Roma'yı bir eylemde bulunmaya yönlendiren bir önlem.

Proje detayları

Proje detayları

Yüksek elektrik pilonları, atık yönetimi ve kötü çöp toplama'nın Iztok mahallesinde yaşayan Roma üzerindeki sağlık etkisi hiç incelenmemiştir. Bununla birlikte, elektromanyetik radyasyonun sonuçlarına ilişkin genel çalışmalar, bu tür kurulumlar ile kanser riski ile diğer sağlık sorunları arasında bir bağlantı olduğunu göstermiştir [4] [5].

Elektromanyetik radyasyon (EMR) konusu, belediyenin çevre konularında bir uzmana sahip olmasına rağmen, kamu yetkilileri tarafından hiçbir zaman gündeme getirilmemiştir. Elektromanyetik radyasyonun etkileri bölgesel sağlık müfettişi tarafından göz ardı edilir - TVarditsa'da EMR'nin neden olduğu sağlık sorunları hakkında bilgi veya veriler mevcut değildir. Bölgesel sağlık müfettişi, Tvarditsa'daki Roman mahallesinde kanalizasyon kaldırma sistemi ve zayıf atık yönetiminin eksikliğinin sağlık etkisini hiç incelememiştir.

Roman sakinleri tarafından oluşturulan yerel girişim komitesi, elektromanyetik radyasyonun neden olduğu sağlık risklerinin farkında değildir. Atık yönetimi ve zayıf altyapı gibi diğer konulara odaklanmaktadır.

İhtilaf süreci

Projenin mevcut durumuFaaliyet göstermekte
İhtilaf sürecinde gerçekleşenler:Katılımcı mekanizmaların güçlendirilmesi
Kötü yaşam koşulları ve sağlıksız çevre hakkında farkındalık yaratmak
Varsa öneriler:Her yıl belediye, Tvarditsa vatandaşlarını içeren kasabayı temizlemek için bir günlük bir girişim düzenliyor. Roma mahallelerini temizlemek için seferber edilir ve belediye tarafından çöpü toplamak için plastik torbalarla sağlanır. Bununla birlikte, herhangi bir koruyucu maske veya eldiven almazlar ve bir kez daha sağlık tehlikelerine maruz kalırlar.
Ayrıca, yerel yetkililer Roman yerleşiminden en büyük düzensiz çöplük çıkardı, ancak daha sık çöp toplamak veya kamusal alanda ek çöplükler ve çöp kutuları sağlamak için herhangi bir önlem almamışlardır.
Dahası, yerel yetkililer, özellikle Roman işçileri tarafından oluşturulan bir temizlik ekibine sahip, özellikle de belediye tarafından istihdam edilen, roman olmayan yaşam alanındaki sokakları temizlemek için istihdam ederken, Roman aileleri yaşam yerlerinde atık taşmasıyla karşı karşıyadır.
Elektromanyetik radyasyonu sınırlamak veya Roman sakinleri arasında sağlık risklerini önlemek için bir proje yoktur.
Bu ihtilafta çevre adaleti sizce sağlandı mı?:Hayır
Neden? Kısaca açıklayınız:Tvarditsa'daki Roman yerleşimi, yüksek hava, gürültü ve toprak kirliliğine sahip az gelişmiş bir alan olmaya devam ediyor. Altyapı, yönlendirme dışı mahallelere kıyasla daha fakirdir ve sağlık tehlikeleri, şehirdeki ayrılmamış bir yerleşim yerlerinden daha yüksektir. Elektromanyetik radyasyon sorunu, belediyenin çevre sorunları konusunda uzman olmasına rağmen hiçbir zaman ele alınmamıştır. Yüksek voltajlı elektrik pilonları 2019'da hala Roma yerleşiminde ve yetkililer güç şebekesinin bir parçası oldukları için onları kaldırmayı planlamıyor. Çözüm, Roman sakinlerini daha güvenli bir yere taşımak olabilir. Bununla birlikte, böyle bir eylem, aileleri konut için alternatif çözümler olmadan zorla tahliye riskine maruz bırakmaktadır - şimdiye kadar birkaç örnek göstermiştir.
