They wake up with black soot covering everything

 
Help End Air Poisoning in the Rivers State Community!

Dear friends,
People in Rivers State, Nigeria wake up every morning to find black soot covering everything from their food and furniture to their cars and the trees outside. It seems as though the entire community is coated with a fine dust that seeps into everything.
Residents of the state have started a Care2 petition, imploring the global community to help them stop the pollution that is showering down on them. Will you add your voice to their cause?
The soot may look like just a freaky occurrence, but its implications are deadly real. Air pollution is poisoning the people of the town. Everyone is affected — the elderly, children, mothers, fathers, common citizens, and even government workers. Soot is dangerous and can cause premature deaths, asthma attacks, lung diseases and rise in cancer. No one is immune.
That's why the community there is reaching out to us. In order to make sure the government takes them seriously and gets involved immediately, we will have to act together to bring international attention to this public health catastrophe.
Thank you,
 Miranda B.
The Care2 Petitions Team
