  1. Another example showing why mafia land is also a cesspool. The environment is completely unimportant there. And, that’s why gas from mafia land isn’t nearly as clean as the krauts claim. A lot of pollution was caused by the time it reaches kraut homes and factories.

  2. That sub in the image is already an ecological disaster looking at it. Don’t they have paint in Muscovy?
