The ger districts of Ulaanbaatar
needed to be moved to a better location in order to reduce air pollution, said
the Green coalition of Mongolia.
“The most efficient way to diminish the air
pollution is the ecologically correct location of the ger districts. In other
words, the ger districts need to be moved to a place which has the right wind
direction. There is the full possibility to do this,” the Green coalition said.
In research conducted by scientists
from the coalition, which grew out of the Green movement of Mongolia, it was
found that 9100 hectares of houses needed to be moved. The average cost of one
house evacuation was US $1000.
