Carbon landfills in Russia: purpose, problems and prospects

The decarbonisation process in the Russian Federation is proceeding at an accelerated pace. Since the launch of the carbon polygon project in 2021, seven sites have been established, six sites are in progress in 2022, and eight more projects are planned for 2022-2023. This article has defined a carbon test site and the need for a carbon test site. A map of the location of carbon sites on the territory of the Russian Federation has been demonstrated, as well as a timetable for the implementation of the carbon project. The prospect of implementation of the carbon project on the territory of Voronezh region, the operator of the project being Voronezh State University, was considered in more detail. Plants required for planting carbon sites and carbon farms were identified as well as ways to dispose of species that are no longer suitable for observation. The topic of the need for training in the current realities of the green economy and the introduction of new, previously non-existent professions was raised. An average of 15 million rubles is allocated from the state budget for the implementation of a carbon landfill. for scientific research and 17-18 million for practical equipment. In addition, Russia is the state with the richest forest fund, which gives it an advantage to become the world leader in carbon dioxide absorption. It is necessary to translate this potential into a monetary equivalent as soon as possible. The action strategy is as follows: calculate the "carbon" balance → sale of cultivated crops → development of the country's economy. Literally increase the economy of the state, sell clean air.
