Some 6,000 cubic meters of contaminated land will be cleaned up in the notorious God's Paradise, one of the world's most polluted places on earth. The area is filled with lead and factory waste, but the Ministry of Environment and the Blacksmith Institute have pledged to clean up the area. Engineer Victor Garcia, who is in charge of filling the contaminated areas, says lead traces have been found as deep as three meters down. Hoy reports that cleaning crews are taking precautions to limit the spread of lead in the area. Garcia explained once the area has been completely cleaned it will be filled and then turned into an ecological park.
