- Аннотация: In 2015, the UN adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 corresponding targets. To reach these goals, it is needed to use different quantitative and qualitative indicators based on global, national, and country data. One of the useful indicators is the Environmental Performance Index (EPI) that grades countries’ performance in relation to two principal environmental policy objectives: the Protection of Ecosystem Vitality and the Environmental Health. With regard to these principal objectives, the EPI covers nine problems’ areas: Climate and Power production sector, Agriculture, Biodiversity Loss, Fisheries, Forestry, Water quality, Health Impacts, Air pollution, and Water sanitation. According to the 2016 EPI, Russia occupies the 32nd position in this rating. 40% of population in Russia is living at the territory occupying 15% of total country area with unfavorable environmental conditions because of air and water pollution, deforestation, biodiversity worsening and forests’ cover loss, poor waste management. The World Wildlife Fund estimates annual loses of the country reached about 1 billion dollars from the illegal export of wood. The measures to improve energy efficiency policy, to decrease air pollution were studied for Baikal model region. It is expected that the SDG indicators will become a common reference point for national and subnational monitoring in the Russian Federation.
