  • Not even very good land:

    Russia has been facing severe environmental issues, with the country’s Natural Resources Ministry naming 35 cities and towns with dangerously high air pollution levels. The country’s air pollution is largely attributed to industrial activity and vehicular traffic, with over 200 cities exceeding pollution limits. The Krasnoyarsk region has the highest air pollution level, with the city of Norilsk being the worst offender, releasing 1,787,000 tons of pollutants into the air. Other major cities like Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, and Volgograd also experience high concentrations of air pollution. Water pollution is also a serious concern, with 75% of surface water and 50% of all water in Russia contaminated. The country’s soil degradation, nuclear waste storage, and deforestation further contribute to its environmental challenges.
