In tugai forests, you may come across these unusual hanging nests. But do you know who builds them?

A suspected case of corruption involving an environmental official has been uncovered in the Samarkand region. According to law enforcement authorities, the head of the Ecology and Environmental Protection Department of one of the districts allegedly accepted a computer set worth 11 million Uzbek soums from a local resident.

According to Abdullah Niyazov, the project manager at Passive House (Dubai), the project's initiator , the pilot phase includes 50-100 homes in the Tashkent region. Construction costs are $ 500 per square meter, with a conservative market price of $1,000 per square meter. This results in a gross margin of over 100 % thanks to direct contracts with manufacturers of certified components and local production. This is crucial, as the "Green Mahalla" project isn't a ground-up experiment, but rather the transfer of a proven model to a new environment.

This situation raises serious questions in the public. First of all, where and how are Zarafshan pheasants, listed in the Red Book of Uzbekistan, delivered to the teahouse? Who controls the fate of these rare birds, whose numbers are decreasing year by year in nature?

There are reports that the "Ulfatlar" teahouse in the city of Yangi Yol, Tashkent region, is preparing shashlik from pheasant and sparrow meat. It is noted that this teahouse has not stopped this activity yet.
