Environmental Cleanup National Commemoration/Patriotism

The Clean Arctic environmental project aims to clean and beautify areas near military graves and historical fighting locations in the Arctic, coinciding with the 80th anniversary of the Great Patriotic War. Project leader Andrey Nagibin stated that while the project has already removed significant waste and cleaned hectares of land, this effort remains a small fraction of the total accumulated debris. The initiative, which began in 2021, involves volunteers, scientists, and various organizations.
