Environment (Expanding upon the environment section of the Nenet article)

"Because of the expansive gas and oil industry, reindeer pastures are shrinking, and some regions, such as the Yamal Peninsula are overgrazed, further endangering the Nenets way of life." (This was what is already written about it). The Nenet people heavily rely on fishing and reindeer herding to support their lifestyle. However, these practices are very reliant on the environment which is under threat from the oil industry. Specifically, the nomadic lifestyle the Nenet people have been accustomed to for generations is in danger as the oil industries encroach on reindeer pasture and territory. As oil industries continue to expand, the impact will only get more serious and the Nenet people will only suffer more.
