To date, the environmental situation in Russia is abysmal; in the environmental rankings, Russia ranks 106th, behind leaders in pollution, such as India and China. The reason for this is flawed environmental legislation and ignorance on the part of citizens. We raise the banner of struggle against the catastrophic ecological situation in the Russian Federation. We are fighting for legitimate laws to protect the rights of the people to health, clean air, land, and water.
