Green activists protesting against the new law "On the Environmental
Impact Assessment" have announced a new protect action.
The activists and environmentalists decided to "storm" the president's
email. On February 15 starting from 9:00am till 11:30pm they will be
emailing to Serzh Sargsyan demanding revision and elaboration of the
new law by the parliament. Within the first 1.5-hour of the action,
15 people had already emailed to the president.
The Armenian parliament passed the above law on February 6. Activists
say the law will allow large-scale felling without environment impact
assessment and public hearings. In addition, the law restricts the
public involvement in decision-making.
Another action of protest was held in front of the presidential
residence on February 14. Environmentalists were demanding the
president not to ratify the law.
