Some environmental concerns....

Lake Baikal, the largest freshwater lake of the world accounting more than 20% of overall fresh water of the world sustaining 1500 varieties of flora and fauna under its womb.
On the sidelines of reviving the economic condition the nearby populated regions of lake baikal after the economic reccession, Russia has not only overlooked the sustainable environmental growth of the region, but on the contrary reincarnate the polluting paper industries of the surrounding regions. It's very much true that for the livelihood of the people living nearby areas, there should be some sort of earning livelihood but looking for an easy and environmentally unsustainable solution should not have to be preferred in a such an environmentally critical region which was already very much harmed by the presence of pulp and paper industries pouring tons of chlorine including other harmful chemicals into lake baikal. Russia, which is gifted by nature in terms of environmentally rich resources should have to be taken care of these by realising them as the resources of the mankind and as of a localized region.
