Garbage overflows at the foot of Ro bridge

(Baonghean.vn) - Currently, environmental pollution from waste is a pressing issue among the masses. However, many localities still do not have a waste landfill planning, allowing waste to spread and pollute the environment and water sources, including a typical example such as Vo Liet commune, Thanh Chuong district.

On March 18, Vo Liet Commune Youth Union coordinated with Dang Thuc Hua High School to organize Green Sunday, mobilizing more than 1,300 union members to clean up trash at the foot of Ro Bridge.
