According to an AP report, the United Nations has criticized Russia for ignoring the ecological impact of construction projects for the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
Russia's dated Black Sea resort of Sochi is under the spotlight as the next Winter Olympics host. As constructors set about building all facilities from scratch, environmental activists say the ecosystems have already sustained irreversible damage and bird and bear habitats have been destroyed. The government says it is aware of the concerns and accuses the activists of trying to sabotage the games as a public relations stunt.
