This story about “The Great Stink” is both fascinating and revolting! It’s incredible how such a disgusting event could lead to such significant changes in public health. I never realized how much of an impact sanitation has on a city’s development. The fact that politicians fled because of the smell is both hilarious and alarming. It makes me wonder how people managed to live through that without modern solutions. Do you think something like this could ever happen again in a major city today? Also, how did this event specifically influence the way cities handle waste now? I’d love to hear more about the long-term effects of this crisis!
¡Qué historia tan fascinante y asquerosa a la vez! Nunca me imaginé que el mal olor pudiera tener un impacto tan grande en la historia. Es increíble cómo una crisis tan desagradable pudo llevar a mejoras significativas en la salud pública. Me pregunto cómo la gente de esa época lograba soportar ese olor día tras día. ¿Creen que algo así podría suceder en una ciudad moderna con toda la tecnología que tenemos hoy? Definitivamente, este evento demuestra que incluso los problemas más repugnantes pueden tener un lado positivo. ¿Qué otras lecciones creen que podemos aprender de “The Great Stink”?
