  1. Environmental pollution in Russia Major problems

  2. Forest resources Forest resources in Russia are used irrationally.When deforestation is a lot of waste.In processing lost about 20% of wood.In the forests decreased species diversity of flora and fauna.

  3. Sea pollution 60% of the shoreline is experiencing destruction, erosionand flooding, which causes significant damage to nationaleconomy and is an additional source of pollutionmarine environment. A particular danger is graveradioactive waste in the northern seas.

  4. Solids Among technogenic loads serious problem waste. On the territory of the country in dumps, landfills, storage and unauthorized dumps accumulated about 80 billion tons of solid waste production and consumption. In the stores, depots, cemeteries, landfills and other sites containing more than 1.1 billion tons of toxic and environmentally hazardous industrial waste.

  5. Air pollution 90% of the pollutants of anthropogenic origin. Their main sources are: combustion of fossil fuels in power plants (emission of smoke) and the engines of motor vehicles.

  6. Manufacturing processes that do not result from burning fuel, but also lead to a dusty atmosphere, for example due to soil erosion, opencast mining, blasting and leaks of VOC in valves, pipe joints of refineries and chemical plants and from the reactors, storage of solid waste, as well as a variety of mixed sources

  7. Contaminants entering the atmosphere, are transported over long distances from the source, and then returned to the earth's surface in the form of solid particles, droplets or chemical compounds dissolved in precipitation.

  8. Solutions to environmental problems 1) The formation of modern environmental legislation 2) Involvement of environmental activities of the general population 3) Environmental education and training of environmental specialists 4) Establishment of plants for waste

  9. All in our hands!
