Abstract
The processes of a green economy development, changes in approaches to the production and use of energy, the emergence of new sources of investment in the technological transition - all this is a consequence and, at the same time, the cause of structural shifts in the economies of advanced countries. In this light, the technological backwardness of the Russian economy, caused by a negative structural shift during the period of market reforms, impedes the transition to a green economy, rationalization of the use of natural resources and reduction of environmental pollution. Therefore, the development of theoretical provisions for the convergence of environmental and economic policies, the development of appropriate incentives for business are considered as an important step in the transition to sustainable development. For this purpose, the authors examine the original approaches to various paths of transition to sustainable development caused by structural shifts of a convergent nature in the economy.

For the transition to the green economy, Russia will need a period of structural transformation and modernization of the economy, technological changes, and the formation of a new model of reproduction [8]
Summary
Economic crises that have become more frequent in recent decades, as well as manmade disasters on a global scale, indicate the dominance of the model of unsustainable development [1]. In this regard, we can talk about the lack of convergence of economic and environmental policies, both at the national and global levels [5]. It is no coincidence that ahead of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development, the Report of the High Level Panel of the UN Secretary General on Global Sustainability "Sustainable Planet of Sustainable People: the future we choose" notes the need to develop a new "political economy of sustainable development" It will allow transferring the paradigm of sustainable development from the periphery global economic debate at their center [3, 5]. This idea can be implemented within the framework of the green economy concept
