The environmental community was expecting 2020 to be a "super-year," a period to summarize the results of conservation work worldwide and make plans for the future. But WE LEARNED A LOT IN 2020: our planet summarized it for us by sending a MAYDAY and indicating the system was seriously flawed. Although early into the pandemic, we often heard that nature got WORKING ONLINE AND WITH VERY cleaner, we can see now that it has been yet another blow to the environment. © Marina Khrapova / WWF-Russia Russia will remember the year 2020 for LIMITED RESOURCES, PREPARING FOR environmental disasters near Norilsk, in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Kamchatka, and Khabarovsky Province, which have already prompted changes to the environmental control measures. In 2020, forest and tundra fires reignited with EXTRA RISKS, FINDING UNEXPECTED a vengeance: it was the hottest Arctic summer in history and yet another red flag. We at WWF-Russia worked remotely for the most part of 2020. Despite the pandemic, we managed to complete our main tasks and did not pull a plug on any SOLUTIONS. BUT THE MOST of our environmental programmes. During the summer, we released eight bison into the wild in the Republic of North Ossetia–Alania; they joined the herd that had settled there two years prior. -

When you rehearse your list of loves to me, Oh, I can laugh and marvel, rapturous-eyed. And you laugh back, nor can you ever see The thousand little deaths my heart has died. And you believe, so well I know my part, That I am gay as morning, light as snow, And all the straining things within my heart You’ll never know. Oh, I can laugh and listen, when we meet, And you bring tales of fresh adventurings- Of ladies delicately indiscreet, Of lingering hands, and gently whispered things. And you are pleased with me, and strive anew To sing me sagas of your late delights. Thus do you want me – marveling, gay, and true- Nor do you see my staring eyes of nights. And when, in search of novelty, you stray, Oh, I can kiss you blithely as you go… And what goes on, my love, while you’re away, You’ll never know.
