Financial support for targeted programs in the field of environmental protection and environmental management

Abstract

Introduction. The article discusses the problems of financial support for targeted environmental programs. Materials and Methods. The methods of legal analysis, synthesis, generalization and comparative law were used, which allowed us to develop possible solutions to the problems under study. Analysis. The reforms of budget, tax and environmental legislation carried out at the beginning of the XXI century actually destroyed the existing ecological and economic mechanism of nature management, which led to significant problems in the field of financial support for program activities. Currently, government programs are an important tool for financial support of environmental protection and are considered as a legal form and legal basis for financing environmentally significant activities, but they cannot fully demonstrate their effectiveness. The main source of financing for environmental protection measures is currently budgetary funds. Financing from nonbudgetary sources is underdeveloped, which can cause problems of lack of funding, which are particularly acute on the ground. Among other problems of financial support for environmental protection measures, it should be noted the tendency to decrease the total amount of financing, the lack of financial support for certain important activities, financing from the amount of available funds, uneven distribution of budget allocations in the budget cycle. Results. Proposals are being put forward to improve the financial support system for targeted environmental programs, which will make them an effective tool for environmental planning even in the face of anti-Russian sanctions, a pandemic and an economic crisis.
