Экологическая модернизация России: общественный запрос

Abstract

The success of Russia’s ecological modernization and decarbonization of the Russian economy can be ensured only by the joint efforts of all public institutions and, above all, the state, business and civil society. At the same time, it is diffi cult to assess the criticality of contribution of each institution. The only certain thing is: if at least one of the above-mentioned institutions is not involved in this activity, the probability of Russia’s environmental modernization success becomes extremely low. As world experience shows, public consensus on the goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and specifi c measures to achieve these goals is extremely important. For Russia, which economy is built basically on the extraction, production and export of carbonintensive products, the transformation of the socio-economic model will have serious social consequences, therefore, building a dialogue with society, taking into account the real opinion of the citizens and developing measures to support the population for a fair transition to a low-carbon development model are of crucial importance.
