Fluffy white clouds of toxic waste have invaded the streets of Bangalore. It looks like fresh snow, but it’s actually from the Bellandur Lake, which is horribly contaminated with chemical and sewage waste. When it rains, the lake rises and winds lift the foam into the sky and carry it to India’s technology capital.
The city used to be home to nearly a thousand lakes, but now only about 150 exist. Thanks to the pollution, Bangalore has earned a new nickname: the “land of a thousand sewage tanks.” [1]
Bellandur Lake used to supply more than 20 villages with water until the 1970’s, but it has since become a cesspool. It is part of the Bellandur drainage system and it drains into the southern and southeastern part of the city.
Digital Journal reports that by the 1980s, unregulated industrial, residential and commercial development caused insufficient rainwater to reach the Bellandur Lake. The body of water declined further in the 1990s, when Bangalore became India’s version of Silicon Valley. As IT companies moved into the city, the lake became a dumping ground for construction debris, leading increased dumping of chemical waste and raw sewage into the water, and a buildup of the toxins around the lake.
