I am writing my first post in your wonderful community ecoTrain.
But, unfortunately, my story will not be optimistic at all…
I was very outraged by the barbarism of people in relation to our Nature!
I live in the south of Russia, in the North Caucasus, in the edge of mountain peaks.
We have a very beautiful nature!
Due to the pandemic, I am currently unable to travel all over our country.
I have to take my walks in the vicinity of the city in which I live.
The beautiful Beshtau Mountain rises next to my city!
This mountain consists of five peaks.
It is a laccolith mountain, that is, it has a volcanic origin.
The area under the mountain and the forest on Beshtau are a nature reserve and are protected by law.
There are many rare plants growing in the forest and meadows. Among them there are plants that are listed in the Red Book!
Almost every day I make trips to Beshtau.
And I admire the beautiful scenery around:
I often walk along the road to the source of natural mineral water. And I always see this huge stone in the shape of a shark.
In summer the clearing where the stone stands was clean and overgrown with grass.
Today, while taking a traditional walk in nature, I saw a terrible picture...
A large number of truck tires are scattered around the stone.
These tires are huge!
And they smell disgusting!
The entire meadow around the stone is damaged by deep pits…
People who can be called barbarians are destroying entire areas of meadow land...
In the place where beautiful flowers bloom in spring, there are now ugly pits...
Just like graves...
Why do barbarians hang plastic ribbons on bushes, disfiguring nature?
Why do barbarians throw garbage everywhere on the territory of the nature reserve?
Napkins...
Plastic bags...
Plastic bottles...
And even whole garbage dumps!!!
And there is a dumpster near the mineral water source under the Beshtau Mountain.
However, garbage is rarely taken out of it.
There is also a garbage dump around the container...
People! What are you doing?
Why are you ruining our nature with your garbage?
People, stop it!
Let’s save our Nature!
