Disaster!

In the summer, one of the main sewage stations broke down (Yes, broke down) - and this lead to some sewage water being pumped into the sea. If we were in Australia this would be called a national crisis - but here, well it is mostly ignored.

Tris' students are unaware of the problem (although I don't know how when you have to go past smelly pumps where ever you ho) so, he showed him the image I found in google maps.

This is the recent image:

The one he showed to the students has less green around the coast!

Today the Al Watan came out with this:

They are now pumping all sewage into the sea and now there is 4cm of sewage! It's frightening.

Horray for Kuwait.
