Svetlana Radionova, Head of Federal Service for Supervision of Natural Resources (Rosprirodnadzor): It will take five to six years to clean up the Arctic zone
It will take five to six years to clean up the Arctic zone, Svetlana Radionova, Head of Rosprirodnadzor, said in her official Telegram channel, RIA Novosti reports.
The head of Rosprirodnadzor said that at present, on behalf of the government, the federal project “Full-Scale Cleaning” is being implemented under which “many places will be cleaned up.”
According to her, the cleaning process is also underway with the involvement of volunteers from the Clean Arctic Project.
“When we decided to free the habitats of polar bears and other Red Book animals from waste, and generally put the fragile Arctic zone in order, of course, we understood what we would do this for more than one year. I think it will last five, maybe six years. This is a lot of hard work,” said Radionova.
