Forests keep disappearing, rivers dry up, wild life's become extinct, the climate's… — Anton Chekhov
Forests keep disappearing, rivers dry up, wild life's become extinct, the climate's ruined and the land grows poorer and uglier every day.
In the original Russian
Лесов все меньше и меньше, реки сохнут, дичь перевелась, климат испорчен, и с каждым днем земля становится все беднее и безобразнее.
1897
