Environmentalists send letter to Serj Tankian
16:53 - 13.08.11
A group of environmentalists has sent a letter to famous US-Armenian
rock singer Serj Tankian who is currently in Yerevan for a concert,
asking to join the fight for protection of nature.
In the letter the activists say that Armenia's natural resources are
being overused by the government which is having its consequences on
the environment.
The activists recall figures of abnormal births in the CIS where
Armenia is the second after Kazakhstan.
"The onetime Biblical Armenia with its fertile soil is turning into a
sterile, poisonous and dangers [place for] human reproductions," reads
the letter.
"It can continue no longer. We are disrupting the balance of nature;
exterminating ourselves," read the letter.
"By eliminating the essential conditions for life, we are encroaching
on the lives of future offsprings," the letter added.
