# Russia is sick: Russia burning off $10m worth of gas every day - BBC News
Aerial images have shown a Russian energy facility near its border with Finland burning off supplies of natural gas worth approximately $10m US dollars.
It's said the plant has been burning off gas, which would have previously been exported to Germany, for months.
The burning has also triggered a warning from climate change experts with its close proximity to the Arctic Circle.
I'm starting to hate the country more and more each day.. what a sh*thole
What would you suggest they would do with the surplus gas after being hit by sanctions?
