Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of cause-and-effect relationships in the territorial ecological and economic systems of Siberia, in which the technogenic load is as close as possible to or even goes beyond the ecological capacity of the respective territories. Among such territories, first of all, oil and gas producing regions of Western Siberia, Kuzbass (Kemerovo region), Norilsk industrial region, the territory of the Middle Yenisei — Angara and Lake Baikal are singled out. Environmental measures are proposed, the implementation of which could ensure the improvement of the ecological situation in these regions.
