Abstract

Today, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the sustainable development agenda has come into focus from a new angle. The issues of inequality, as well as the topics of transparency, effective interaction of various stakeholders to overcome common global challenges, on the other hand, are becoming more and more relevant. Environmental problems affect all countries, and many of them - such as climate warming or pollution of the world’s oceans - are global in nature. Because of them, the health of the population is deteriorating, ecosystems are disrupted, states are suffering financial losses. Governments are implementing multi-billion dollar programs to prevent or minimize environmental damage. According to the UN, key global environmental problems include climate warming, depletion of the ozone layer, accumulation of waste (including toxic ones), deforestation, loss of biological species, water and air pollution. The paper assesses the current state of the environmental sphere, state policy and investors’ plans for its development, considers the industries that make the main contribution to environmental pollution, and their investments in the environment.
