Germany faces smog problems. Local experts say he is being deepened by gliding from Poland
The German Federal Environment Agency reported that the air quality in Germany was terrible and that a significant portion of the smog cloud came from Poland. According to local experts, the contamination comes from carbon power plants and private heating systems fired with this raw material.
The Federal Environment Agency (UBA) announced that Germany’s air is “dramatically polluted,” with the Berlin Daily “BZ” saying that the capital’s smog has been ongoing for several days. Ute Dauert, UBA province cited by the newspaper, said half of the contaminants came along with the Polish clouds, only 12%. It’s from Germany.
According to German experts, 35% in Hamburg and 25% in Dresden and Hanover. The suspended dust comes from behind the country’s eastern border. “BZ” reported that Polish smog clouds are to be created from “coal power plants and private heating systems fired with coal.”

Dr. Hartmut Herrmann of the Tropospheric Institute, Leibniza, warned in the magazine that “hanging dust particles last for several days, especially in dry conditions without rainfall.” This is why German air is contaminated by smog from the east.
In collaboration with the federal UBA, environmental protection offices in affected trade union countries are recommending “people who are sensitive to avoid physically paddling outdoor activities.” German experts have warned citizens that such air conditions can contribute to many illnesses such as lung cancer, heart rate and stroke.
