The problem of legal regulation of the circular economy and ecology, sustainable management of municipal solid waste at the legal and organizational levels both in the Russian Federation and in the world is now coming to the fore and requires immediate solutions. Examining strategic planning documents and other legal acts, the authors attempted to examine current legal problems in the study area in the context of modern state of ecological policy of Russia and the implementation of circular economy, realizing the sustainable development goals of the UN in the environmental area. The authors suggest that a legal assessment of the possibility of transition of Russian industrial companies to a closed-loop economy is necessary, which is associated with an active approach to processing the materials of their products after the stage of use. In conclusion, a number of conclusions are drawn about the legal acts adopted in the Russian Federation and the organizational measures being implemented that contribute to solving various problems related to the sustainable development of the most important segment of the economy and the environment – the disposal and processing of waste, reducing its volume and the possibility of secondary use due to the development of the circular economy. Innovation is an important condition for this transition.

Water resources are an integral part of energy, industry, food and human life. Water efficiency is given a special place in the area of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) promoted by the United Nations (UN). Water is used everywhere in everyday life and in the manufacture of products, which leads to the depletion of the water potential of a country or an entire continent. Currently, companies are actively introducing new standards for water use, keeping records of water consumption, applying innovative technologies to provide water desalination and wastewater treatment. There is a shortage of drinking water in the world, especially in overpopulated countries and the southern regions of the planet. No state can solve water use issues on its own. Currently, countries are focusing on developing technologies for desalination and wastewater treatment plants. These industries are science-intensive, innovative and require raw materials, financial resources and policy favors from the states. On the territory of the Sverdlovsk region of the Russian Federation, all known types of common minerals were found, and a special economic zone the “Titanium Valley” also operates on this territory.

Poor quality and insufficient legal support for the activities of the customs authorities have a negative impact on the development of the Russian economy. The conducted evaluative historical and legal studies of the legal support of the activities of the customs authorities of the Russian Federation indicate the need for a detailed study of the regulations governing the activities of the customs. The study of the features of the current state of legal support for the activities of the customs authorities of the Russian Federation in the conditions of the functioning of the Eurasian Economic Union expands the empirical material that was collected in the course of the study, which makes it possible to apply the results obtained to study the influence of the supranational legal regulation on customs legal relations at the national level. The presented value judgments can be used in forecasting the development of the Russian economy. To establish the effectiveness of the legal support for the activities of the customs authorities and establish its impact on the sustainable development of the Russian economy, it is necessary to scientifically justify the methodological foundations that reveal the action of such a mechanism.

The Russian Federation has a huge potential for the development of agricultural production. Sustainable agricultural development is the basis for ensuring the country's food security. The 2030 Rural Territories Sustainable Development Strategy of the Russian Federation emphasizes the necessity to develop environmentally determined agriculture strengtheninig the sustainability of ecosystems and sustaining life and activities of rural dwellers. The subject of the article is the importance of bioenergy as one of the promising areas of generating electricity from renewable sources for the sustainable development of agriculture, as well as its role in reducing the negative impact on the environment of agricultural production. Bioenergy as one of the high-tech components of the green economy allows us to ensure the return of organic agricultural waste to the production cycle. Thus, the development of bioenergy can make a significant contribution to solving the problem of agricultural waste disposal and at the same time provide rural regions with heat and energy, which is especially important for remote regions of the country with poorly developed infrastructure. At the same time, the need to attract initial investment is one of the main problems that prevent the widespread introduction of bioenergy facilities in our country. In the last decade, a number of positive developments have taken place in the field of legal regulation of renewable energy in the Russian Federation. Only through the development of legal regulation, taking into account the current Russian and foreign experience, can we create a truly effective renewable energy industry in the country – bioenergy, which will simultaneously solve the problems of environmental protection in agriculture.
