According to experts, the new plan will be doubly effective, as well as help in the rescue of birds. Violators will be prosecuted.

Full 'black list' stations (ACP), implementing motor fuel not meeting environmental standards of the city of Moscow, in 2007, can be found here. New year, old problems … but Japanese researchers are concerned about the possibility of human bird flu. They calculated that if the bird flu virus mutates into a 'human' form and penetrate into Japan, from him could kill 640,000 people and the economy will suffer a 20 trillion yen (about $ 200 billion).
