Deaths in road accidents in CR, PR-1 and PR-2 (persons per 100000 residents). The fifth indicator characterizing the differentiation of life quality by groups of regions is tourists traveling abroad. This indicator allows one to judge both the level of income and the choice of recreation options, which is associated with the convenience of transport routes. The difference in this indicator's values for CR and PR-1 reached 2 times by 2019 (while in 2015, it reached 3 times). The values for PR-2 are even lower. This indicates the presence of stable differences in the values of indicators for regions of different groups.

Sustainable development of regions is a key goal of the state policy aimed at ensuring balanced economic, social and environmental growth. An important tool for achieving this goal is the analysis of the industrial structure of regions taking into account the concentration of industries and their environmental impacts. This paper examines the relationship between the localization coefficient, which characterizes the concentration of various industries in the regional economy, and the industrial and environmental profile of industrial regions of Russia. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the industrial specialization of a region, the technological development of industries and their impact on the environment, as well as to formulate recommendations for the formation of effective strategies for sustainable development. The study is aimed at identifying the key factors influencing the sustainability of regions, with an emphasis on the technological development of industries, the level of toxicity of emissions and their role in the environmental stability of territories. The analysis is based on data on the localization coefficient, which allows assessing the degree of concentration of industries in the region and identifying dominant, supporting and promising types of economic activity. Along with this, an assessment of the industrial and environmental profile of the regions is carried out, which takes into account the levels of technological development of industries and their environmental impact. An integrated approach to assessing industrial potential and environmental impacts allows not only to identify key drivers of regional development, but also to identify potential risks to sustainable growth.
... Technological development is an important task for any country, as it directly affects economic growth and the well-being of the population. It is necessary to take into account that technological, as well as economic development, is not distributed evenly throughout the country [1]. Regions may have different levels of technological development, which can lead to inequalities in economic development and social conditions. ...

... Currently, according to our data, at least 300 adventitious species are found in local plant communities. Of this number, approximately 1/5 of the species are the most active and show signs of invasiveness in different ecological and geographical conditions of the region [3,13]. We have included information on 64 species of invasive plants in the preliminary "black list": ...
The results of the study of alien species of the Chelyabinsk region, which form invasions in different ecological and geographical conditions of the region, are presented. A preliminary “black list” of the flora of the region has been compiled, including 64 species of invasive alien plants. Using the recommendations for compiling regional “Black Books” or “Black List”, the species included in the specified list are ranked by us into four categories according to their invasive status. Information is based on indications of reliably known places of introduction and growth of alien species, sources and time of introduction, degree of naturalization and communities with their participation. The presented materials reflect the state of invasive processes in the region and can be used to prepare the “Black Book of the Southern Urals”.
... D. Pletnev approaches this issue from different perspectives. In their work with V. Barkhotov, they studied the quality of life of the population, including in single-industry towns like the Magnitogorsk urban district [19]. With K. Naumova and S. Mirvahedi, D. Pletnev studied fast-growing companies in the transport sector in Russia [20]. ...
The sustainable development and success of industrial regions is largely determined by the efficiency of enterprises in the territory, united in ecosystems, often around the city-forming enterprise. The study of industrial ecosystems, their evolution and the interrelations of participants will make it possible to more effectively implement the goals of sustainable development in the territory, ensure a fair distribution of income, well-being and rational environmental management. The purpose of the article is to assess the relation between the development of entities of the industrial ecosystem on the example of the industrial ecosystem of the Magnitogorsk urban district in Russia. The study used data from Rosstat and the Federal Tax Service for 2007-21. The main results of the study are as follows: five groups were identified in the industrial ecosystem (the core of the ecosystem, companies affiliated with the core, customers of the core, suppliers of the core and other beneficiaries from the work of the core and the ecosystem as a whole, “fellow travellers”). The connection between the performance of the ecosystem core and other companies turned out to be statistically significant, especially strong for revenue growth rates. Among individual ecosystem groups, affiliates and core clients experienced the greatest influence of the core, while the connection of the results of the core with suppliers and fellow travellers was weaker. The connection, taking into account the time lag of one year, turned out to be weaker than the year-to-year connection. In general, the results confirm the hypothesis of a strong connection between the stability of the core and other participants in the industrial ecosystem.
... Some researchers consider that transition to renewable energy industry is a sufficient condition for forming foundations of sustainable development. One of the topical issue of researches remains life quality for citizens [11,12]. However, they leave out of account a significant peculiarity of the agricultural sector activity. ...
The article contains the results of the research on the possibility to achieve the socio-ecological and economic balance in the regions of the North Caucasus federal district of Russia in case of developing renewable source energy and maintaining the carbon cycle in landscapes. The balanced level is determined by the special indicator, the value of which depends on the ratio of the capacity of region’s technosphere to the assimilation potential of its ecosystems expressed in energy indicators. The evaluation also determines whether the carbon cycle of the regions is being maintained or violated in the process of agricultural activities. The findings show that the general value of indicator of the district balance is 8.81, which is considerably higher than one and signals about the imbalance. The socio-ecological and economic imbalance is a characteristic of all seven regions in the district. To achieve the balance the energy balance of each region needs to increase the share of renewable energy industry up to 85-94%, on average up to 89% in the district. The necessity to maintain the carbon cycle forces to provide 28380 sq. km of the territories of the North Caucasus federal district with the specific status. These territories are mainly steppe ecosystems and put together up to 16.6% of the whole district territory.
... An important area of scientific research remains the quality of human life, its factors and results [1]. One of the results of changes in the quality of life, as well as the result of comparing the quality of life in different countries and regions, is migration intentions. ...
Despite the growing interest of researchers in the problem of youth migration from territories with an unfavorable ecological status, the non-economic factors of this process have not been studied enough. The present study fills this gap by identifying the relationship between non-economic variables and the migration intentions of students in an industrial city. The results of the study allow us to conclude that there are moderate links between the migration intentions of students in an industrial city and some non-economic (subjective) factors. In particular, the factors hindering the migration intentions of students are the presence of clear goals, a sense of happiness and satisfaction with life, motivation to interact with other people, trust in them, as well as the belief in family support (but not financial). On the contrary, the lack of clear goals, the feeling of loneliness and dissatisfaction in the present moment, the unwillingness to count on the support of family and relatives, distrust of people are factors that push people to move to another country.
... A. Chima-Fox, B. LaPerla, D. Turkington explore decarbonization, the factors of this process, as well as the impact on the ecology and economy of the countries of the world [1,2]. At the same time, decarbonization does not directly affect the generally accepted indicators of the quality of human life, which makes it difficult to promote it in practice [3,4]. J. Seraphim studies the risks and opportunities arising from the implementation of a policy to reduce the carbon footprint [5]. ...
The problems of reducing the emission of gases harmful to nature into the Earth's atmosphere remain relevant. One of the important areas of environmental activity is the decarbonisation of the economy, the consistent regulation of carbon dioxide emissions. At the same time, the process goes beyond the scope of ecological and economic activity, acquiring a geo-economic and geopolitical character. The article considers the sectoral features of carbon regulation in Russia, assesses the vectors of the impact of decarbonisation on individual industries, and determines the scale of influence. An assessment of the dynamics of selected industries was carried out. The case of one of the regions shows the potential impact of the European carbon regulation in the horizon until 2023.
