demonstration against pollution in Tehran January 19, 2002. Over one thousand
children took part in a demonstration to protest against pollution and called
on the government to remove old cars. Experts say over 2 million old vehicles
with high fuel consumption and exhaust gas emission are the main causes
of air pollution in Tehran.
