About the Concept of Environmental Development of the Perm Region

Abstract

At present, one of the main problems of the development of society is the contradiction between the state of the productive forces and natural resources. Uncontrolled man-made impact on the environment leads to branched ecological, ecological-economic and environmental-social negative consequences. The need for environmental optimization of nature management, which ensures the conservation of the biosphere by protecting the environment and rational use of natural resources, is the main content of the concept of environmental protection in Perm region. The paper considers the main provisions on which the concept of environmental security of the region is based on environmental protection. It is noted that in the province there are problems of a disproportion between the requirements for the quality of the environment and anthropogenic impact on natural resources. Due to the high concentration of chemical, machine-building, fuel-energy, metallurgical and timber industrial intersectoral complexes on the territory of the region, there is a high level of air pollution and significant amounts of waste production. In the industrial centers of the region, the lowest level of life expectancy is recorded. The rationale for possible options for coordination of measures to ensure environmental safety of the territory of the region is given, the most effective of which is a program approach to solving problems. Possible significant results are described that will allow rational use of the natural resources of the region in compliance with environmental requirements.
