"Russia plans its first laws to crack down on industrial polluters next year, and will force offending companies to invest in clean technology rather than pay fines, the natural resources minister said Friday."
"Towns across Russia are poisoned by factories. At the most polluted sites, such as the Arctic town of Norilsk, plant life is dead for km (miles) around the smokestacks and people complain of breathing problems and other symptoms."
