Abstract

This article analyzes approaches to the selection of indicators of regional environmental risks, as well as the impact of risks on reforestation in a particular region. Indicators that characterize the main trends in the forestry industry in Russia were analyzed using monographic, economic, mathematical, and statistical methods. Factors that promote and hinder effective reforestation in the whole country and in the Kirov region are identified. The authors draw a conclusion about the degree of influence of various factors on reforestation in the region. The consolidated environmental rating of the region was determined based on the calculation of the nature protection, socio-ecological and industrial-ecological indices. A comparative analysis of official statistics and satellite monitoring results revealed significant differences in the results of estimating the area of lost forests. Promising areas for reforestation specified, using methods of Abstract-logical assertions and expert assessments, as well as indicators of the regional project “Conservation of forests of the Kirov region»: provision of state institutions with specialized forestry machinery and equipment, training, increasing the area of artificial reforestation, formation of a reserve of forest seeds, attraction of investments, development of the foundation of logging roads. The implementation of the planned measures will make it possible to use the existing forest resources of the region more effectively, preserving and multiplying this invaluable resource.

Highlights

  • Environmental safety indicarors can be determined based on an assessment of the level of environmental risks

  • Reforestation is an important indicator in the system of regional environmental risks and it is the cultivation of forests in areas that have been cutting, wildfire, etc

  • The purpose of the study is to analyze the place of the Kirov region in the environmental rating of the Russian Federation, determining the volume of reforestation as an important factor of environmental risks, the main regional problems in this area, and factors of intensification of reforestation in the region

Summary

Introduction

Environmental safety indicarors can be determined based on an assessment of the level of environmental risks. Anthropogenic impact on the environment, as well as its negative manifestation – anthropogenic pollution, are global in nature. This is due to the nature of the spread of the consequences of these manifestation, since they are associated with the development of a particular region, and with natural and climatic processes that have a cross-border nature. Reforestation is an important indicator in the system of regional environmental risks and it is the cultivation of forests in areas that have been cutting, wildfire, etc. The purpose of the study is to analyze the place of the Kirov region in the environmental rating of the Russian Federation, determining the volume of reforestation as an important factor of environmental risks, the main regional problems in this area, and factors of intensification of reforestation in the region
