Карабаш - один из самых грязных городов на планете.

Город Карабаш (Россия, Челябинская область) – один из самых грязных городов на планете из-за производства меди из медной руды. Заводы в Карабаше работали 90 лет, последний из них был остановлен в 1989 году. При производстве меди из медной руды образуется большое количество вредных веществ, в основном газов, таких, как испарения свинца, серы, мышьяка и, собственно, меди. Эти газы выбрасывались беспрепятственно в атмосферу и не очищались.
