Viennese environmentalists raise the alarm: Salt endangers our city trees!
The environmental spokeswoman for the Green Vienna, Huem Otero García, urged the current campaign of Greenpeace to urge the devastating consequences of the road salaries in the city. "Salt harms the trees, the floors and the dog paws," explained Otero García and criticized that there is a violation of existing laws by spreading salt near trees and unsealed areas. Such practices not only endanger the health of the city trees, but also the well -being of pets, since road salt can cause serious injuries to dog paws, as can ots.at reported.
In a specific case, it was demonstrated in the town hall park that salt was interpreted to an inadmissible extent, which the environmental spokeswoman branded as a blatant violation of the rules. Otero García called for a differentiated step plan to regulate the use of road salt to protect the city trees and at the same time ensure traffic safety. "We Greens are committed to healthy and large city trees that are necessary for cooling in the city," she added.
