Ranipet, India is the thirth city with more pollution in the world, because the dyes used in hides and skins contain hexavalent chromium and other highly toxic substances. For many years ithey have accumulated 1.5 million tons of waste in the open air, which has contaminated the subsoil. Farmers say only one in five crop is good. The irrigation water emits a strong odor and direct contact with it produces ulcers on the skin.
