Oh, come on, Russia. Just how much pollution do you need to be producing just to make vodka, anyway?

The environment is so fucked. It's fucked because no one will care until either A) it starts effecting them financially or B) it's too late. Since no one is going to step up and suggest, nonetheless enact, serious monetary penalties for environmental harm, we're going to end up at B. Of course, since B most likely won't happen in our lifetime, people care even less.
