About 5.6-billion ruble, or $70-million, was invested in environmental initiatives, with the majority of funds going towards waste management and recycling projects, as well as projects aimed at reducing water intake from natural water supply systems, water recycling at concentrators, reducing direct greenhouse gas emissions, and energy efficiency and land rehabilitation projects.
