Загрязнение окружающей среды и здоровье людей

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the relationship between the state of the environment and people's health. The main focus is the influence of atmospheric air pollution in Russia, including in some regions and cities of Siberia, on the morbidity of the population. The analysis made it possible to propose measures to respond to possible environmentally induced health risks, and also to present a number of recommendations on priority directions of improvement of the Russian health care. On the basis of the proposed ways of leveling the risks and threats to human health, the authors conclude that there is a need to transform the existing system of public administration in Russia in the field of environmental protection and health care on the basis of technological modernization of the economy and improvement of the institutional environment. The proposed ways of minimizing risks and threats to human health and living conditions should finally result in forming a favorable environment.
