Some pictures shot recently on a waste management campaign put together by CRE Bacau in collaboration with local high-school volunteers. Approximately 200 young ecologists managed to gather hundreds of kilos of waste, finishing in the end with the planting of wicker in an area that was previously affected by fire. More about it here (only Romanian).

Off to the dump

     On my way Răcăciuni, some couple of days ago, I passed by this district heating power plant, operating at its full capacity. I stopped the car near the road and snapped some photos away, cause I thought that backlit steam cloud would make a good picture. I was right :)

    Oh, and by the way, that's not pollution, that's just water steam blowing off. But people like calling it that way, it's more catchy :)
