Volunteers organised more than 300 events in honour of Environmentalist Day

Russia celebrated Environmentalist Day. A green cause marathon was held across the country. The largest environmental initiative is the "Water of Russia" project. One of the large-scale events took place on the border of the Moscow, Tula and Kaluga regions. Ecovolunteers from the three regions cleaned up 5.5 kilometres of shoreline. This campaign has been running since 2014. Even more details in our story.
