Stop Coal Power Plant
The Lakwijaya coal power plant in Norochcholai, ever since its inception has been a threat to the environment and the well-being of the local community .The smoke emitted by the power plant contains harmful chemicals; hence contribute to the pollution of air. The dust that is blown off the coal and fly ash that is openly stored accumulates on the surrounding crop lands and houses. Even the people breathe air that is contaminated with these heavy metals, particulate matter etc. The water that is extracted from the sea and released back with a higher temperature affects marine life of the area, damaging marine ecosystems. If the stipulated mitigation methods are adhered to, most of these impacts could have been minimized to a certain extent.
