The issues of preserving and maintaining a prosperous environmental situation are currently an urgent topic as Russia continues to adhere to the ESG agenda. An increase in the number of manufactured products leads to an increase in the emission of pollutants into the environment. Thus, the country's population is increasingly concerned about the environmental situation and is trying to support initiatives to reduce anthropogenic impact. Companies are also increasingly turning to ESG principles and implementing them in their production. At the same time, the problem of the lack of measurement of environmental impact and compensation remains. In this regard, a roadmap aimed at increasing the level of appropriate environmental and tax burdens in the regions of the Russian Federation and stimulating enterprises to environmentally responsible behavior may be one of the tools. It will also help to more effectively implement the system of environmental taxation in the country. This tool has proven its effectiveness in developed countries, contributing to environmentally responsible behavior, achieving the principles of the ESG agenda, as well as realizing the right of citizens to a prosperous environmental situation in the regions.
