Abstract
The article discusses the concepts of “green” economy and “green” investments, analyzes the process of “green” investment in the Russian economy and in its regions. On the basis of Rosstat data, the processes of region’s clustering are constructed, based on the effectiveness of “green” investments in the protection of atmospheric air, water resources and in the field of waste management. When analyzing the results obtained, it is noteworthy that in the regions included in the clusters, with significant “green” investments, there is an unfavorable environmental situation and, as a result, poor public health indicators: high morbidity and low life expectancy. It is in these regions that a well environmental and investment policy is needed. The article suggests measures that stimulate “green” investments, and, consequently, improve the environmental situation in Russia and its regions.
