CONTAMINATE URBAN SOILS
CASE STUDY – ASSESING RISK PERCEPTION RELATED TO
SOIL CONTAMINATION ÎN THE CITY OF CLUJ-NAPOCA
This paper represents a statistical assessment of the perception of
risks related to urban soil pollution in the city of Cluj-Napoca. In the past few
years, in all over Romania an increasing trend could be noticed in the scientific
interest for soil contamination due to anthropogenic activities. Nevertheless, a
research aiming to assess risks due to the presence of contaminants in top soils
of urban areas has never been conducted and the public society is deprived of
such information in all cities. The present statistical analysis represents a pilot
study for the city of Cluj-Napoca. It is the first step that needs to be taken in
order to properly asses risks. Identifying and understanding risk perception is an
important milestone for any measure aiming to diminish pollution related risks
for health and the environment.
