TERRITORIES IN URBANIZED INDUSTRIAL ZONES: ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC ASSESSMENTS

Abstract

At present, an increase in production and polluting emissions adversely affects the environment of any administrative-territorial formation. A comprehensive interdisciplinary analysis of environmental factors is necessary, since when studying environmental and economic factors, it is necessary to consider the state of the territory in all its complexity. Environmental and economic assessments of territories in urbanized industrial areas show that population congestion in growing urban agglomerations exceeds the permissible technogenic level of impact on natural systems, as well as depletion of local water, fuel and the ability of the environment to store and process the entire set of various wastes, exceeding thresholds of permissible exposure. This research topic seems extremely relevant and promising.
