PROBLEMS OF THE CONCEPT OF "GREEN ECONOMY" ON EARTH

Summary 

The mind and genius of humanity have long sought to find signs of existence of living in the Earth's world. Despite many attempts, as a result of which he has acquired information about planets being in millions of light years from here, he has never been able to find anything. It seems that the creator of the world made the rare conditions of functioning of living beings on Earth. It is regrettable that this great miracle - the existence of live nature - the man threatened himself. During the XX century, one fourth of the fertile soil on earth and almost two thirds of forests were destroyed. If this process continues with such intensity, the nature will be defeated, so today it is necessary to change the attitude of humanity to economic activity: to get away from the ecological crisis, humanity should work out a new way of thinking; he should act so as not to break the environment for the functioning of the living organism; he must exclude the exploitation of nature from his economic activities.

There is a tendency to become stronger in society (though not enough, slowly but still) that consolidation of the forces of humanity is needed to change the situation, including the potential for the integrity of financial means - in this sense, the growing trend is indeed observed. However, despite such growth, these expenses can not be combined with the negative consequences of the ecological crisis and the joint military budget of humanity. It is enough to note that even industrially developed countries use environmental expenditures only 1-2% of GDP, while the losses are 4-6% of their GDP.

The concept of sustainable development has been developed at the International Conference on ecclesiastical importance in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro. Sustainable development implies that in the field of economic policy, the principles recommended by the Conference on Economic and Environmental Relations must be maintained in each field. It is noteworthy that one of the decisions of the same conference says that the introduction of uniform rules for environmental issues is not necessary, and that this can be explained by the fact that in different countries there are peculiar and special conditions, therefore, a different approach to ecology protection is permissible. I do not think this should be useful for this case. This is more like a kind of justification given by scientists and specialists towards biased interests in this painless process. This would be acceptable only if in all countries a single (unit) organization under the auspices of the UN was engaged in environmental issues, because in the planet, today there is a very different, selfish approach - the motivation states that will always try to use such an approach to satisfy their interests and to avoid the necessary planetary responsibilities.
