The environment is experiencing a great anthropogenic load and it is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure the well-being of people whose numbers on the planet are increasing. People can't help but wonder what kind of world they will leave to future generations. The concentration of greenhouse gases is increasing, the average temperature is rising, the temperature of the world ocean continues to rise, the melting of glaciers is increasing. In such a situation, people cannot do nothing. Their inaction will contribute to the emergence of environmental disasters and social crises. Responding to these challenges requires complex and joint efforts of different countries, regions, companies and individuals in all spheres of activity.
