Exhibition spotlights settlement of toxic chemical consequences


An exhibition on efforts to settle post-war toxic chemical consequences opened in the northern province of Quang Ninh on June 4, an activity in response to World Environment Day (June 5). Themed ‘Order from the heart’, it is jointly organised by Quang Ninh Museum, the provincial Department of Natural Resources and Environment, the Chemical Arms and the Ha Long University. Nearly 300 photos, documentaries, publications and original artifacts are on display. They reflect an ecological and environmental disaster caused by wartime toxic chemicals in Vietnam, the joint endeavour by chemical soldiers and all people in addressing the environmental disaster, and the environmental protection associated with sustainable development in Quang Ninh. The event at Quang Ninh Museum will run until July 4.
