This sounds interesting, do you have sources (about emission levels by country, Russian ecological standards and how are they enforced, etc.)?

  Emissions: http://climateactiontracker.org/countries/russianfederation.html http://climateactiontracker.org/countries/russianfederation.... (note "inadequate" label - this web site rightly says that more could be done in terms of commitments) OECD report on standards: http://www.oecd.org/env/outreach/38118149.pdf http://www.oecd.org/env/outreach/38118149.pdf See "Key findings" section - it summarizes the current progress and remaining issues with environmental policy. No wonder, most of them are deeply rooted in overall political climate and related to corruption, but, still, there's some progress and majority of ordinary people and in the government is really concerned with ecology and climate change. Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment: https://www.mnr.gov.ru/english/ https://www.mnr.gov.ru/english/ There are many more sources in Russian, but it's hard to get a coherent view from them and harsh critics means more that people have very good understanding how it should be and push for more to be done, rather than that government ignores environmental issues like in some countries of South-East Asia, for example.
