There is no only an analysis of air in the atmosphere, but also the statistics of severe chronic diseases among the local population. I know you with the ranking of the most polluted cities of Russia.

1. Krasnoyarsk

Alas, but today Krasnoyarsk is in a very sad state, and its inhabitants literally suffocate from emissions. The main cause of city pollution is the active work of industrial enterprises and vehicles.

2. Chelyabinsk

Today in Chelyabinsk is an extremely high level of air pollution. Approximately 20% of all fixed emissions fall on local power plants and an electrode plant. In the summer, the city of Okutan was able, which is the result of the activities of the above enterprises.

3.Magnitogorsk

The main source of air pollution in the city is the Magnitogorsk Metallurgical Plant OJSC - an industrial giant, which leads a leading place in the field of black metallurgy of the Russian Federation. The concentration of poisons in the atmosphere every year continues to grow steadily. Now the emissions of the servo-carbon, benzapyrine, nitrogen and phenol dioxide are several times higher than the permissible norm.

4. Moscow

Despite the fact that Moscow does not have a giant industrial potential, the city confidently occupies a leading place in the list of the most dirtiest cities of Russia. The lion's share of pollution (more than 1 million tons of harmful substances) falls on automotive exhaust. No wonder over the past 50 years, the number of cars in the capital increased 40 times.

5.Bratsk

The main sources of evil in the city are the fraternal aluminum plant, CHP and Ferroalloy Plant. The environmental problem is aggravated by annual forest fires, which in spring and summer can last from two weeks to four months.

6.Norilsk

Norilsk continues to confidently enter the top three of the most contaminated Russian cities. Even the closure of the nickel plant in June 2016 did not help, after which the amount of harmful emissions into the atmosphere decreased by a third. The main "poisoner" of the city is the Norinkel Mining and Metallurgical Plant. Every year he saturates air with 2 million tons of poisonous gases. A significant part of the local population suffers from the pathologies of the respiratory tract. This contributes to a low life expectancy compared to other regions of the country.

7. Chita

Already that year in a row, Chita also enters ecological anti-raid. The main sources of air pollution in the city are exhausts from cars and smoke from stoves. In winter, the cheat covers the dense from coal dust. Several tens of thousands of private sector furnaces in the city will be drunk exclusively by coal. And the lowest quality. No less acute is the problem of pollution of local reservoirs.

8. Lipetsk

The main source of the air pollution here is the Novolipetsky Metallurgical Combine. It is located outside the city. However, when the wind blows on the side of the plant, the concentration of harmful emissions in the air - dioxins, benzapiren and phenol - shings. According to ecologists, there are about 700 kilograms of poisonous substances per capita.
