It's just a different outlook, doncha know . . . they're looking at a really
cold winter for which they need the power to survive. If they don't
survive, it's not going to help them that their grandchildren will have a
cleaner planet, since their grandchildren will freeze too.
There's this old military addage, that "where you sit determines what you
see." It certainly applies here.

Yobanoye sovetskoe naslesdtvo.
The Ukranian, Byelorussian and Russian governments continue to be engaged
in their Soviet legacy -- Absolute lack of concern for the environment,
the people, and their neighbours. You can follow this legacy on the
RFE/RL (Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty) web page and mailing list
at http://www.rferl.org.
