This article was published by Kreshnik Bajrtaktari in KIJAC – Kosovo Institute of Journalism and Communication under the name “Environmental Deterioration Risks Kosovo’s Future”. It writes about the idea of producing the Kosova C energy plant. This article argues that the production of Kosova C energy plant is not a good idea. Firstly, because we already have a lot of dust or air pollution from Kosova A and B, thus we do not need another plant to create more dust. Second, the amount of money that will be invested in this plant is very high. The two energetic plants are causing not only air pollution but also deceases like the simple act of breathing, an increase in cases of bronchial asthma, emphysema and lung cancer cases. Unfortunately, there are not enough data that can prove that Obiliq is causing most of the lung cancers, so there is no one who will be willing to invest in this. UNMIK also stated that it would be very difficult to build a new energetic plant around Obiliq because it is near Prishtina, in which almost half of the population lives and most of them drive every day through that road, so the air is being polluted even more. The main criterion of this problem is definitely health of the citizens of Kosovo. Also, another criterion is the cost that Kosovo government would have if they decide to find a solution for this problem.
