YEREVAN, APRIL 19, NOYAN TAPAN. The documentary films "City Becoming
a Desert" and "Sevan: Threads of Hope" on environmental problems
of Armenia (author - journalist Inga Zarafian) were demonstrated at
the Innovative Experimantal Art Center on April 18. "City Becoming
a Desert" shows the danger threatening Dalma gardens of Yerevan,
the poor state of Hrazdan gorge and the destroyed forests in the Nork
residential district. According to I. Zarafian, if things go on like
this, Yerevan will no longer be suitable for normal life. The same
is true with respect to Lake Sevan which is facing the threat of
becoming a swamp. "It is impossible for humans to live in concrete
surroundings, we must protect our nature," she is convinced. To recap,
"City Becoming a Desert" won the main award of the competition of
journalist works on environmental protection held by the OSCE Yerevan
Office in 2005. "Sevan: Threads of Hope" will be demonstrated at a
festival in Slovakia on May 2-7.
