Environmental Law Regulation in Creating the Conditions for Sustainable Development of the Russian Economy With Simultaneous Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

Regulation of greenhouse gas emissions in Russia is just beginning. The mission of Russia's environmental development and climate change R&D program is to launch fundamentally novel basic research and techniques for the environment and climate. There are three major targets to be achieved by 2030: fundamentally enhance environmental security, improve the state of the environment, and study the climate and the mechanisms of adaptation to climate change. Actions will need to be taken to reduce the environmental impact of greenhouse gas emissions. In the near future, climate projects will move to the top of the global environmental agenda and will dominate among the projects for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Global specialists have so far failed to deliver a clear definition of the forest climate project. It is up to lawyers to formulate the key quality criteria of the project implementation at the legislative level. Russian forests occupy the largest area in the world and form a core of the system that binds and stores carbon. Russia must use these expanses to augment the carbon absorbing capacity of our forests. A priority in the Russian R&D program will be research into the most effective mechanisms of carbon dioxide sequestration. Structuring of climate data and techniques is underway and, most importantly, it is becoming possible to verify them at the international level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
