Lazarou Monkey Terror 🚀💙🌈Bad Air
"An estimated 7,000 citizens of this vast, thinly populated country of 3.48 million have died this winter due to air pollution, indoors and out."
Xamanismo Coletivo"Due to a lack of housing in #Ulaanbaatar, people build #gers – circular white tents clad with felt around a thin latticed-wood frame. The structures have no running water and a central stove feeds out through a chimney pipe in the roof. Pit latrines are dug outside. More than 50% of #Mongolia’s population live in gers, with about 800,000 people in Ulaanbaatar alone – about half the city’s population. An estimated 196,000 domestic #chimneys puff #coal fumes into the dry city air, with each household burning an average of 23kg of coal daily in winter."

But as extreme weather drives families off the Mongolian steppes into the city the air is becoming more deadly" #mongolia

Julian DierkesConstruction cost for planned #Ulaanbaatar metro currently estimated at US$2.4b.

Slightly cynical rule of thumb on this kind of project: twice as long, twice as expensive.
Note that Worldbank reported a #Mongolia GDP of US$20.3b for 2023.

Монгол Улсын хувьд ач холбогдол бүхий Улаанбаатар хотод метро барих төслийн шинэчилсэн ТЭЗҮ-г өнөөдрийн хуралдаанаар хэлэлцэж, төлөөлөгчид дэмжиж саналаа өгсөн нь түүхэн шийдвэр гэдгийг НИТХ-ын дарга А.Баяр онцолж хэллээ.
So curious to see if aerial tramway in #Ulaanbaatar actually happens, construction claimed to start this Spring.
