Abstract

The paper discusses a system of criteria that make it possible to assess the level of environmental safety of an enterprise. The model of the “nature-population-production” system and the very interaction of the system are presented. Environmental problems, problems of ecology of production, and consumption of natural resources lead to an increase in the rate of growth of production, which, in turn, leads to an increase in demand for resources, and as a consequence, to their irrational use, and then to massive emissions into the environment as waste. In order to improve the environmental situation in the country, some areas for improving the greening of the production sector are presented, which increase the efficiency of consumption and use of natural resources, while reducing environmental pollution by emissions, effluents, and waste. The main indicators that determine the level of environmental management are presented - indicators of resource intensity, an indicator of the degree of restoration of natural resources, and indicators of saving primary natural resources. All three indicators are part of the specific consumption of natural resources and can be used at the enterprise to control the consumption of natural resources, as well as in order to minimize waste through the use of secondary resources and low-waste technologies. The established ways of improving the greening of the production sector are able to improve the ecological situation in the regions of the country and establish the relationship between man, nature and the production sector.

Highlights

  • Human economic activity, manufacture, production and use of products and services occurs within the framework of a close exchange of materials and energy with the environment [14]

  • In order to improve the environmental situation in the country, some areas for improving the greening of the production sector are presented, which increase the efficiency of consumption and use of natural resources, while reducing environmental pollution by emissions, effluents, and waste

  • The economy must move to greening the production sector in order to improve the environmental situation in the country

Summary

Introduction

Manufacture, production and use of products and services occurs within the framework of a close exchange of materials and energy with the environment [14]. Entering into a relationship with the natural environment, an industrial enterprise forms with it a kind of dynamic ecological and economic system, the main property of which is the balance and proportionality of its natural and production subsystems [5,6,7]. The number of toxic emissions into the atmosphere for nine months from the beginning of the year exceeded the last maximum ten years ago by a third, and compared to 2019, the amount of pollution has jumped three times. Since the beginning of spring, during which there was a period of non-working days and quarantine due to the coronavirus pandemic, and until the end of June, only two cases of high air pollution were recorded.
