Federal scientific and technical program in the field of environmental development of the Russian Federation and climate change for 2021-2030 is a multi-sectoral nationwide policy document aimed at improving the efficiency of scientific and technical activities in the field of ensuring environmental development activities of the Russian Federation and climate change. The objectives of the Federal Program are creation of science-intensive technological solutions, aimed at ensuring environmental security, improving the state of the environment; study of climate, mechanisms of adaptation to climate change and its consequences; ensuring sustainable and balanced socio-economic development of the Russian Federation low greenhouse gas emissions through source studies of emissions and sinks of greenhouse gases and taking measures to reduce the negative impact of such gases on the environment. Federal Program shall be implemented in the following fields: (a) monitoring and forecasting of the state of environment and climate; (b) mitigation of the anthropogenic impact on environment and climate; and (c) adaptation of ecological systems, population and sectors of the economy to climate change. Expected results: (a) development of greenhouse gases flow and carbon cycle monitoring system on the territory of the Russian Federation and adjacent marine areas (including land and remote monitoring); (b) development of the system of climate and environmental monitoring of key areas of the World Ocean, coastal territories and coastal waters of the Russian Federation; (c) development of multi-target modelling and forecasting of regional climate; (d) development of economic and mathematical models to assess the socio-economic and environmental climate effects implemented and planned climate policy measures in relation to the national economy as a whole; and (e) development of scientifically based assessment system for assessment of efficiency of management technologies related to environmental risks, climate risks and opportunities, as well as adaptation to climate change in order to ensure sustainable development of coastal territories and coastal waters of the Russian Federation and sustainable development of urban agglomerations.
