(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 16 - Campania's environmental agency is seeking to recruit a group "smell sleuths" to help it get to the source of the strong smells that have been polluting the air of some parts of the southern region for several years.
    The "odour examiners" will be paid to do three-hour sessions to assess samples of air collected in the affected areas and help a special olfactometry laboratory in Caserta.
