Construction activities in Sorkheh Hessar's National Park :
According to the latest news obtained by the environmental activists, the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture crossed the boundaries of the Sorkhe Hessar National Park for the purpose of construction of their cooperative houses. it's worth mentioning that the Sorkheh Hessar's problem started in the middle of the 80's by ignoring the environmental laws regulation about the four protected areas and handing over certain parts of the park to the Ministry of Agriculture. This has been an ongoing problem between the two governmental organizations. The environmental activists in addition to supporting the National Park also express their deepest concern for destruction of one of the oldest protected areas in the world while sympathizing with the personnel of the Ministry of Agriculture's need for housing , they would like to suggest that the Ministry of housing choose some other location for this purpose. the environmental activists also are extremely critical for the honorable director of the environmental Conservation Organization and the respectable Minister of Agriculture, They believe that on the threshold of the third millennium and on the eve of both the international year of the "Peace and Culture" and the year of "Dialog among Civilization", the governmental organizations should solve this problem at the highest level to prevent any conflict between the environmental guards and the employees of the Ministry of Agriculture. it is hoped that we respect all the human beings and their lives , negate any kind of harshness , cooperate with others and protect our planet.
