Russian "environmentally friendly" bomb trumps MOAB

Who's your daddy now bitches?
4X more bang than MOAB.
Col.-Gen. Alexander Rukshin, a deputy chief of the Russian military's General Staff, said in televised remarks. Though, unlike a nuclear bomb, he hastened to add, the "DOAB" doesn't hurt the environment.
I'm guessing its gotta produce a lot of CO2, so Al Gore will pitch a fit. The local flora and fauna within the blast radius might have something to say about that environmentally friendly claim as well. AFAIK, bombs are detrimental to the health of horned tree newts, speckled flying sloths, etc.
In related news, the USAF has announced the development of a truly enviro-friendly bomb inspired by the paint rounds "Oddball" fired from his tank in the WWII documentary Kelly's Heros. The MOAPB (Mother Of All Paint Balls) will be a 50,000lb non-lethal device that can cover 1,000,000 square foot area with sticky biodegradable weapon jamming goop.
