Megjashi demands urgent measures for air pollution Legislative changes to reduce pollution.Members of the Parliament to vote the legislative changes and reduce the permissible threshold of air pollution with dangerous particles. The Children's Embassy Megjashi requires the permissible limits of PM 10 and PM 2.5 to not exceed more than 75 micrograms per cubic meter and not as now when the limit is up to 200 and the government takes emergency measures when the situation is alarming. From the ones who were elected by the people is expected to be mobile and not allow children to live in modern gas chambers.- We demand from them that they demand legal changes and to respect children’s right to life. For such essential issues there should be civil disobedience, boycotts and other forms of revolt, since there is no parent who can be indifferent when looking at what happens to his child who lives and grows in abnormal conditions, says Dragi Zmijanac from Megjashi. Zmijanac says that in western countries, parliamentarians and other competent institutions do not allow pollution with PM particles to exceed over 40 micrograms per cubic meter. In order to mobilize the state to take measures and understand the consequences of air pollution, Megjashi say that the lawsuit against the state and the city of Skopje is in preparation due to the high pollution.- We are expecting experts opinion about how much polluted air affects the development of children. Otherwise, the situation is so alarming that as a consequence of air pollution every second child is with respiratory diseases, there are premature births, and cardiovascular diseases among the youngest, says Zmijanac.Otherwise, today the Children's Embassy promoted the report on the representation of children's rights in the Parliament. The general conclusion is that MPs talk very rarely about children.Parliament - a central institution that can shape and enforce laws that promote the rights of children.The child's health is a priority. But in conditions of high concentration of carcinogenic particles PM10 and 2.5 micrograms per cubic meter, we can conclude that the right to life of children and lawmakers must be questioned must be mobile, require legal changes to reduce the high threshold of 200 mg / m3 per 40 mg / m3 permitted limit value, according to European standards. Members of the parliament should require that the threshold of information for PM10 particles to be 50 micrograms per cubic meter, and no higher than 75 micrograms per microgram per cubic meter, two days consecutively. The alert threshold should be set at 50 micrograms per cubic meter. The limit values that are the most stringent rules in European Union legislation for air pollution levels define that the daily limit of the presence of PM 10 particles must not exceed 40 micrograms per cubic meter.As a consequence of air pollution, every second child suffers from respiratory illness. Children suffer from a range of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, conditions associated with premature birth or genetic mutations in the fetus. Polluted air is one of the major causes of child mortality and must be prevented immediately. Children are the most sensitive group because their organism in development and faster breathing, and therefore faster bring in the contaminated substances in the body. Children are more vulnerable than adults when it comes to internal and external air pollution because their lungs, brain and immune system are still developing and their respiratory tract is more vulnerable. Every child has right to life. The state must keep an eye on how children and young people can develop well.That is why, a month ago, we formed a parliamentary lobby group composed of MPs from the Commissions for Labor and Social Policy and Education and Science, in order that Parliament as a central institution that can shape and implement laws that promote the rights of children, to actualize problems in the Parliament which are of vital importance to children, which are important for children, to urge the government and relevant segments of society to report of what is done first for the health of children and their rights and to advocate the interest and voice of the children.We set up a parliamentary lobby group for children's rights in order to facilitate the implementation processes of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in Macedonia, as well as to legally improve and implement the rights of children in practice.
