Citizens’ Observations
- Esma Acar:Esma Acar, who encountered the mossy image, evaluated the situation as follows: “I live close to this park and I observed more moss accumulation this year. This could be due to decreased rainfall or lower water levels. This situation is quite different from previous years. There was more water here before. The fact that it is now covered in moss is really worrying.”
