Environmental protection is considered an important element in most religions. The article is devoted to the philosophical understanding of the problem of the influence of religion on the environment, human behavior and attitude to nature. Religion has always touched upon the problem of the relationship between man and the world around him. In the existing religious traditions, various ideals of the relationship between man and nature have been formed. As a result, the ideological functions of religion acquire special significance. In our time, religions can be a spiritual source for the development and formation of environmental ethics and natural aesthetics. Religious ethics awakens in people a consciousness that is different from material and technological thinking. Religion helps people understand that their control over the living and inanimate world is unlimited and that cruelty towards nature will turn to them. Religion teaches people that the purpose of life is not to maximize consumption. While technology gives man the physical strength to create or destroy the world, religion teaches virtue. Directly or indirectly, religion can be a powerful source of environmental protection. Therefore, we need to use the power of the influence of religion to protect nature. The nature of the influence of religion on the current state and development of society largely depends on the relationship between people of different faiths. The religious consciousness of people developed in the direction of knowledge of the world and its laws, methods of practical use. Some religious ideologies deify human nature and reflect people's responses to their environment. Religion, as a form of social consciousness, has always, in one way or another, taken care of man's relationship with the natural world, traditionally expressed a certain moral and ethical concern for the environment and determined the moral obligations of man in relation to the environment.

The specific objectives of this Country Environmental Analysis (CEA) are to: 1) Review the existing situation in the sector, identify priority areas for policy changes or investments, and consider the role of the government, the private sector, and donors in implementing this agenda 2) Assess macroeconomic-environmental linkages and measures that affect long-term sustainability and financial viability within the priority areas 3) Provide a basis for defining the Bank's future involvement in the sector. The following environmental issues have been identified as critical, based on the negative impact of the current environmental conditions on human health, the economy, and natural ecosystems: Deteriorating trends in water, sanitation, and waste management; threat of coastal zone deterioration; air pollution hot spots; energy inefficiency; excessive industrial pollution; weak environmental management system, institutionally and legally; economic instruments that are more geared to revenue generation than to providing incentives for environmentally responsible behavior; quality and quantity of water resources; transboundary water and global environmental issues; and lack of sustainable forest management. The report recommends improving waste management, particularly hazardous waste; increasing provision of basic water and sanitation services to urban and rural poor; addressing environmental hot spots; strengthening institutional capacity for environmental management; preparing a coastal zone strategy; including in the environmental assessment potential liabilities in the advent of privatization; introducing measures to enhance energy efficiency and use renewable energy sources; instituting measures to reduce nutrient run-off to the Danube; preparing a biodiversity strategy, identifying threatened species, and preparing an action plan; and preparing a management plan for Lake Skadar and introducing environmentally friendly natural resource use practices.

The implementation of any business project should be preceded by activities to predict its possible impact on the environment and to obtain environmental acceptability assessments for the implementation of the corresponding project. Ecological expertise is aimed at solving these important tasks.

Based on the analysis of amendments to the Russian environmental legislation introduced in the last few years concerning the procedure and procedure for conducting environmental assessments, it is shown that these changes did not contribute to the improvement of the current situation. A number of measures have been proposed which are currently ripe for reanimating approaches to state environmental expertise, including the restoration of a system of specially authorized state bodies in the field of environmental protection; strengthening legislation on the institute of environmental impact assessment; streamlining issues of their financing, etc. ; Реализации любого хозяйственного проекта должна предшествовать деятельность по прогнозированию его возможного воздействия на окружающую природную среду и получению оценок экологической допустимости осуществления соответствующего проекта. На решение этих важных задач и нацелены экологические экспертизы. Государственная экологическая экспертиза является организационноправовым инструментом предупредительного экологического контроля, нацеленного на проверку соответствия хозяйственной и иной деятельности экологическим требованиям. Она базируется на принципах обязательности проведения, независимости, научной обоснованности и учета общественного мнения. В статье рассмотрено назначение экологических экспертиз, сформулированы их основные принципы, вытекающие из зарубежной практики экологической политики в развитых странах, имеющих значительный опыт разработки и результативного применения различных институциональных инструментов экологического регулирования, включая экологические экспертизы. Дан анализ становления института экологической экспертизы в России, показаны достигнутые результаты и упущения в данной сфере за последние 30 лет, выявлены причины и последствия сворачивания государственной экологической экспертизы после 2000 г. На основе анализа внесенных в последние несколько лет поправок в российское экологическое законодательство, касающихся порядка и процедуры проведения экологических экспертиз, показано, что данные изменения не способствовали улучшению сложившейся ситуации. Предложен ряд назревших к настоящему времени мер по реанимации подходов к государственному экологическому экспертированию, включая восстановление системы специально уполномоченных государственных органов в области охраны окружающей среды; усиление законодательства, касающегося института экологической экспертизы; упорядочивания вопросов их финансирования и др.
