Scientists from the Institute of Public and Municipal Administration of the National Research University Higher School of Economics studied the environmental preferences of Muscovites. More than three thousand city residents over 18 years old, living in different administrative districts of the capital, took part in the study.
“The study covered a wide range of issues related to the assessment by city residents of key environmental factors: noise, air purity, the state of green areas and others. In addition, experts studied in detail the influence of environmental factors on the choice of a house, place of residence, work and recreation. The results obtained will help us make effective management decisions, improve processes and achieve the goals of environmental policy to maintain a favorable environmental situation in the capital in the interests of our final beneficiaries – city residents,” said
Julia Urozhaeva, Head of the Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection of the City of Moscow.
The experts used various assessment tools and carefully collected quantitative and qualitative data. The respondents were divided into 13 groups, and then the preferences of each were analyzed and environmental portraits were compiled. The survey showed that 78 percent of city residents want to improve their level of environmental literacy.
Women aged 26 to 35 demonstrated high involvement in the environmental agenda. Sports enthusiasts were singled out as a separate group. They noted the need for clean air and water bodies in the city.
Respondents also emphasized the importance of spending time in green areas. At the same time, within the city limits, most Muscovites prefer the development of eco-trails and a road-path network so that walks in nature are accessible and comfortable for everyone, including the elderly and parents with small children.
The results of the study were presented at a scientific seminar with the participation of members of the expert council for the protection and use of green space in the city of Moscow.
