Lebanon's environmental disaster

The video discusses a massive landfill in Sidon, Lebanon, highlighting its environmental, health, and economic impacts. The landfill, a four-story high site, poses severe health risks to locals, causing diseases and cancer. It also affects the local economy, particularly the fishing industry, as waste fills the nets instead of fish.
