Facts About Russia You Never Knew Until Now

They have the largest forests in Europe

Many people don’t know that Russia has forests that rival those in South America. The trees in Russia absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide and give out plenty of oxygen.

For this reason they have been nicknamed the lungs of Europe and provide essential contributions to the environment in both Russia and Europe. These forests must be protected at all costs to ensure the ecosystem in Europe otherwise our air quality could be seriously compromised.
