Moscow Environment


Even given the fact that many industrial enterprises built in the capital in the nineteenth and last century are displayed over the city, the environment it gets worse with every year. As Moscow's population is constantly increasing and this increase occurs at the expense of coming here to work and live, demand for housing remains high as its cost. The earth in Moscow, one of the most expensive, and the construction of new buildings is the method of "point" building. This means that new homes are built, generally in places where the vegetation – gardens, groves, greened vacant lots.

The reduction in the total area of green plantings and a dramatic increase in the number of cars thus adversely affect the purity of the air and the environment. The situation is aggravated not even the cars themselves as such, and constant traffic jams. The engines of cars, standing in them, work in extreme mode, selecting in the air the maximum quantity of exhaust gases.


Independent experts estimate the environmental situation, given the other parameters characterizing the environmental component. These include the level of background radiation, noise, soil condition, presence of objects – sources of adverse human health factors: landfills, industrial waste disposal, etc.
