2022 will bring Slovakia its first complex law for climate protection. It is being prepared by the Ministry of the Environment. The priority goal of the regulation should be to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. Dana Mareková z iniciatívy Klimatická koalícia hovorí prečo je takýto zákon dôležitý a čo by mala kvalitná klimatická legislatíva obsahovať. The city of Prešov is threatened by an ecological collapse. The problem is related to a brine leak. The salt concentrate underground is a remnant of a defunct salt production plant. Some damaged caps on boreholes are leaking to the surface under high pressure. The situation is worsening rapidly.
