From afar looks harmless white foambut in fact it is a massive build-up of cotton-like contaminants which overflowed into a river and landed in the neighborhood in a town near Bogotá. The unbearable stench indicates pollution.
For several years, residents of the Los Puentes sector in the municipality of Mosquera have been accustomed to the appearance of smelly foam on the balsillas riverwhere wastewater comes from the Colombian capital, located about seven kilometers away.
But this time an unusually heavy rainy season collapsed into the river and into the water full of water waste from the capital of eight million inhabitants They are stuck at this point. The white plague grew until it attacked a lot of houses.
