There isn't such a phenomenon in my country, perhaps because there is more or less environmental awareness due to the waste crisis we dealt with couple of years ago, and the government and parliament's role in exacerbating it. There were nationwide protests even. Yet the awareness didn't go beyond trash disposal back then. As long as we hid our debris behind walls, the environment would be fine!
However, the last two years were different. We successfully protested against building a harmful dam, heavily invested in green energy, and climate change was at last acknowledged as the reason for this year's horrendous weather (it only began to rain in the spring, which harmed crops).
