Zhujkov V.M. Comparison of Domestic and Foreign Legal Regulation of Environmental Relations

Abstract: In the conditions of world ecological crisis before all mankind it is necessary to construct the "green" economy based on without waste or low-waste technologies that, certainly, weakens anthropogenous loading. The different states of the world achieve these results by different ways and with varying degrees of success. Because of process of transfer of hazardous industries and the whole fund of a dangerous waste from the leading states of Western Europe and North America to the BRIKS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, the Republic of South Africa), ecological risks essentially grow in the latter mentioned group of the countries. However for overcoming of ecological crisis the society and the state need to develop the adequate legal response. On the assumption of the study, the author presents two basic conditions to overcome the ecological crisis: ensuring democratic procedures during the development of environmental decision-making, formation of economically viable conditions for the protection of nature.
