Calendars for January

January 1, 2026

The New Year has arrived! We're sharing the January calendars we've prepared for you.

We can only save nature together!

Help nature right now and contribute to these projects. Every donation is important. Together we can do more.

It's important not only to plant a forest but also to maintain it for decades to come. With regular support, we can ensure the forest is supported and meets all the necessary conditions for proper growth. Continuous care is essential for the nascent ecosystem, ensuring that mushrooms and berries eventually thrive and that wildlife emerges. It's important to protect the forest from fire, remove weeds around young trees, nurture seedlings, collect and preserve seeds and acorns, dig up mature seedlings, and so on.

More than 40,000 Moscow students took part in a traveling poster session on microplastics organized by the Ecology Foundation of the Russian Agricultural Bank.

December 30, 2025

Over 40,000 Moscow students participated in a large-scale educational project by the Ecology Foundation of the Russian Agricultural Bank, aimed at increasing environmental awareness among young people and developing waste management. The key event was a traveling poster session, "Truth and Myths about Microplastics," held at leading Moscow universities.

Microplastics are an invisible but pressing environmental threat today. These microparticles penetrate soil, water, air, and food chains, negatively impacting ecosystems and human health. The Foundation's project aims to provide scientific answers to the most important questions in an accessible and visual form: what are microplastics and how are they formed, what are their real consequences for nature and humans, and how can everyone reduce their use in everyday life.

The Ecology Foundation's poster session was successfully held at prestigious Moscow universities, including Bauman Moscow State Technical University, Sergo Ordzhonikidze Russian State Hydrometeorological University (MGRI), Russian State Social University, Moscow State Institute of Geodesy, Informatics, and Culture (MIIGAIK), D.I. Mendeleyev Russian Chemical Technology University, Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas (National Research University), and Lomonosov Moscow State University.

The project's reach was not limited to the capital. Educational events were held at the Cheboksary Botanical Garden and online for the environmental council of School No. 11 in Tuapse.

"Since 2023, we have been systematically working on environmental education and engaging Russians in practical initiatives. Having seen strong audience interest, especially among young people, we are striving to expand this experience. This year, winning the Presidential Grants Fund competition allowed us to expand the project's reach. In 2026, we will continue to expand the range of participants, and we invite educational institutions and organizations from across the country to join our initiatives," noted Elmira Morozova, Director of the Ecology Foundation at the Russian Agricultural Bank.

World Gift Day

December 26, 2025

Today is a great time to think about what gifts we give and why.

Often, beautiful boxes quickly lose their value and end up on the back shelf, so we want to offer you an alternative.

An online lecture for young environmentalists in Tuapse: Understanding microplastics.

December 24, 2025

On December 24, as part of the winning project of the Presidential Grants Fund, Anastasia Masterova gave a lecture for members of the environmental council of School No. 11 in Tuapse.

The students delved into the world of polymers to understand: – What is microplastic and where does it come from? – How does it travel around the planet and enter our bodies? The lecture was dynamic and interactive, featuring an online survey and myth-busting. Such meetings are an important part of our environmental education project. We believe that knowledge is the first step to real action to conserve nature.

We thank the administration and teachers of the Tuapse school for their cooperation!

The Ecology Foundation has announced the results of the "Dress Up the Eco-Christmas Tree" competition.

December 22, 2025

We recently counted how many Christmas trees have been prepared in Russia for the New Year. It turned out to be half a million. They're alive, beautiful, and fragrant with pine needles…

However, there's still a lot of debate about which tree is more environmentally friendly—an artificial one or a real one. If you have an artificial one, it's a good idea to use it year after year. If you buy a real one, be sure to dispose of it properly after the holidays by taking it to a specialized collection point.

Another option is to make your own Christmas tree from scrap materials. It's environmentally friendly, and old items get a second life. For the second year running, the Ecology Foundation has been holding a themed competition for Rosselkhozbank employees called "Decorate the Eco-Christmas Tree."

The instructions are simple: you need to make a Christmas tree from scrap materials. Anything that catches your eye will do—corks, matches, paper…

This year, many interesting entries were received, including a record number of participants – 121. Colleagues submitted photos of their completed Christmas trees via the "Office in Digital" mobile app. The jury reviewed and selected the best from numerous worthy submissions. They were guided by three criteria: environmental friendliness (recycled materials); aesthetics and artistic value; and the number of likes from employees.

Colleagues will receive merchandise from the Ecology Foundation for their creative work.

Congratulations and thanks to every participant. Upcycling is trendy!

The Ecology Foundation of the Russian Agricultural Bank will warn 3 million drivers in Transbaikalia about the endangered gazelles on the road.

At least 3 million motorists will be warned annually about the dangers of hitting rare Mongolian gazelles thanks to new information boards installed along highways in Transbaikalia. The project to preserve the population of this endangered animal was implemented by the Ecology Foundation and the Daurian Nature Reserve.

The initiative aims to inform drivers about the need to slow down in areas where Mongolian antelopes migrate seasonally. Winter is a special time in the region, when the local population of Mongolian dzerens is joined by their relatives from Mongolia, forming large herds along the roads.

Six banners have been placed along the Byrka-Aksha and Borzya-Solovyovsk highways, in areas where animals cross the roads en masse. Given the high traffic volume (up to 10,000 vehicles per day), the stands will serve as a major tool for prevention and environmental education.

"The return of Mongolian gazelles to Russia after a long absence is a major conservation achievement. Projects like these highlight the importance of maintaining the delicate balance between infrastructure development and wildlife. We are pleased to support the Daursky Nature Reserve in this important work and hope that this project will help preserve this unique population for future generations," comments Elmira Morozova, Director of the Ecology Foundation at the Russian Agricultural Bank.

Since 2021, the Fund, established by Rosselkhozbank, has been implementing long-term programs in several key areas: forest restoration, biodiversity conservation, waste recycling, environmental education, and scientific research. Over the past four years, the Ecology Fund has implemented 72 environmental initiatives. The total funding raised for these projects has reached approximately 128.9 million rubles.
