Not a peep from the environmentalists....wasting natural resources is of no concern to Russia

Russia burns large amounts of gas amid supply cuts to Europe
An orange beacon of gas has been burning on the Finnish border for months. At the same time, Europe is struggling to fulfil its energy needs.
 
Russia has been wasting vast amounts of natural gas while cutting its supplies to Europe, analysts from the Norwegian energy consultancy Rystad Energy revealed on Friday.

Satellite images of the Portovaya compression station show a huge flare as large amounts of gas are burned off.

The facility is close to the border with Finland and is part of the network that feeds the Nord Stream 1 pipeline bringing gas into Germany. Flows through the pipeline have been reduced to just 20% of its capacity.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The biggest polluters in the world include Russia and China. Have we ever heard criticism?
The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.
