Ecological rationing

The right of every Russian to live in a safe environment is enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. In addition, any citizen of the country can expect to receive information on its state, corresponding to reality. Human health in the process of life and work should not threaten anything, and environmental rationing ensures the practical realization of this right. It is the most important instrument regulating the use of nature, it makes it possible to control the safety of the ecosphere. In domestic and foreign environmental management this concept is widespread and it is believed that environmental rationing is a method of administrative management.

Requirements for environmental protection regulate the maximum permissible standards of human exposure to the constituent parts of nature. They include legal, scientific and administrative control, which is aimed at establishing acceptable parameters of the impact on the OS. In compliance with regulations, which established environmental regulation, there is no degradation of ecosystems. This makes it possible to guarantee security to the public.

Being the central idea of the Federal Law, the issue of OS protection occupies a separate chapter at number 5. Here the basis for the standardization, the requirements for activities in the field relating to environmental protection, is set out in detail. In the same chapter, various types of human economic activity and possible consequences that can affect nature are discussed in detail.

Environmental protection in Russia involves the consideration of design, reconstruction, construction and operation of industrial facilities. Also important is the conservation and liquidation of buildings of various industrial purposes.

The environmental practice of the Russian Federation, based on standards that have long been in fact the main measure in preserving the environment, introduces state standards that are responsible for the quality of these actions, and establishes the procedure for the normalization of economic activities. This is the main function of state environmental management.

Environmental regulation includes two main areas:

• Responsibility for the state of the OS;
• Responsibility for the impact on the OS.

Qualitative standards are provided for assessing the state of air in the atmosphere, soil and water by biological, physical and chemical parameters. If the content of chemicals does not exceed the permissible concentration, the values are favorable.

Environmental protection in Russia is carried out in accordance with the legislative norms, which are recognized as the most important criteria for providing citizens of the country with a favorable residence. If the condition of atmospheric indicators, soil and water corresponds to these quality standards, this is evidence of the high efficiency of the mechanism responsible for environmental management.

There are also standards for human activities that limit its impact on the environment. With their observance, all natural ecological systems function steadily and biological diversity is preserved.

Monitoring of the state of the environment provides for a whole range of measures directly aimed at controlling the integrity of ecosystems. It implies the observation, assessment and possible forecast of changes under the influence of anthropogenic and natural factors. Various services are involved in its implementation. Monitoring of the state of the environment differs depending on the objects that are monitored. If violations are detected in the activities of economic entities, a set of measures for their elimination is developed and strict control over the implementation of regulations is carried out.

In 2013, 2013 will be the Year of Environmental Protection. The decree on this was signed by the Russian president, which confirms concern for the population of the country.
