Increasing amount of dangerous waste due to fast industrialization has put a big pressure on environment protection efforts, officials said at a conference Monday.
Statistics from the Department of Environment Criminals from the Ministry of Public Security showed that the country last year discharged around 32 million tons of solid waste, including around 200,000 medical waste, 11 million tons from agricultural areas, 13 million tons from urban residential areas and six million tons of industrial waste.
only around 60 percent of dangerous waste has been treated according to environmental requirements. The rest has been either buried, discharged everywhere or recycled illegally.
