On May 26-27, 2022, on the basis of National University "Yuri Kondratyuk Poltava Polytechnic", scientific and pedagogical staff of the Department of Applied Ecology and Nature Management held the І International Scientific and Practical Conference "Overcoming Environmental Risks and Threats to the Environment in Emergency Situations-2022", dedicated to solving global environmental threats in the conditions of military risks and emergencies. More than 700 Ukrainian and foreign scientists took part in the large-scale scientific event, presenting their own achievements in the field of environmental protection.
According to the results of the І International Scientific and Practical Conference "Overcoming Environmental Risks and Threats to the Environment in Emergency Situations-2022", the organizing committee proposed to publish a collective monograph on the subject of the conference in electronic format. The publication was prepared in partnership with Lviv Polytechnic National University.
According to the teachers of the Department of Applied Ecology and Nature Management of the National University "Yuri Kondratyuk Poltava Polytechnic", the exchange of scientific ideas, research achievements and borrowing the best European experience in the field of environmental and nature protection activities will be a powerful incentive for qualitative state transformations.
The monograph "Overcoming Environmental Risks and Threats to the Environment in Emergency Situations-2022" publishes the results of scientific reports in the following areas:
- global and regional environmental threats;
- ecological and technogenic safety of territories;
- renewable energy.
The collective monograph from the standpoint of ensuring environmental safety presents the results of environmental research with an emphasis on establishing environmental risks and threats to the environment in emergency situations and hostilities. The scientists considered the problems of global and regional environmental threats, issues of ecological and technogenic safety of territories, presented developments in the field of renewable energy. In scientific studies, scientists have provided some intelligence on the environmental consequences of military actions related to the invasion of the russian federation on the territory of Ukraine.
"In the conditions of martial law and active hostilities, one should not forget about a number of environmental problems caused by the use of various types of weapons, weapons of mass impact on the territory of our state. Ukrainian and European scientists-ecologists are currently working on solving global and regional risks, threats and man-made hazards in subordinate territories, reservoirs, surface and groundwater. The vigorous research activity of our university teachers does not stop even in today's difficult conditions, everyone has their own front and brings the Victory closer with their own professional efforts. We are sure that our work will be another step towards the revival and reconstruction of our country," – commented Doctor of Technical Sciences, Head of the Department of Applied Ecology and Nature Management of the National University "Yuri Kondratyuk Poltava Polytechnic" Olena Stepova.
The monograph is intended for scientists, teachers, managers and specialists of state administration bodies, ecologists, graduate students, students of leading Ukrainian and foreign universities, all those who are interested in the issues of conservation, restoration and rational use of environmental resources.
The electronic copy of the collective monograph can be found on the official website of the National University "Yuri Kondratyuk Poltava Polytechnic" at the link: https://nupp.edu.ua/page/opis-kolektivnoi-monografii.html.
Earlier in Poltava, the memory of the "Nature Keeper of Poltava Region" was honored, scientists and stakeholders named the eco-professions of the future, and a student who investigated environmental risks in the industrial regions of Ukraine won a scientific competition on technogenic safety.
