And locals in Sibai have been forced to wear masks after thick smog from a copper factory has been settled over the town since November. 

The bizarre phenomena has caused dozens of demonstrations across Siberia against polluters which has seen president Vladimir Putin's support waning.   

It comes after a series of separate protests across more than a dozen Russian cities against plans to send Moscow's trash to poorer - and often pristine - northern areas.

The first major trash protests took place outside Moscow last winter, when several children were hospitalized with poisoning linked to a local landfill.

Moscow had been frantically trying to deal with rubbish of 13million people after residents of a suburb connived Mr Putin to close a gigantic tip there dubbed 'waste Everest'. 

Locals in nearby cities complained about toxic fumes that caused headaches and noise bleeds after lorries began ferrying waste to dumps in their areas. 

Environmentalists and even authorities have called the idea 'immoral' and urged officials to invest in waste separation and recycling operations instead.  

In an annual address on Wednesday, Mr Putin hit back at 'shady firms...dumping rubbish wherever and however they can'.

Despite addressing the issue, last months trust in the president fell to a record low of 33 per cent.

Green snow, thick smog and pink lakes in Russia's pollution crisis 

Green snow lined the streets of Pervouralsk after slurry tank at a nearby chrome factory became clogged and pumped water which overflowed to the surface.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
