Abstract

The article considers the ecological space at the population life quality level of the largest industrial region of Russia — Kemerovo region (Kuzbass). The main reasons for the high anthropogenic press on natural environments are shown. Implementation of an assessment the industry anthropogenic impact degree, transport and other economic activities on the atmosphere pollution, hydrosphere and lithosphere, both in the region as a whole and in the municipalities context. As indicators of the anthropogenic press, the indicators presented in official statistics are selected. To assess the atmosphere pollution — the total pollutants emissions into the atmosphere, exceeding the substances MPC in the atmosphere; for assessing the hydrosphere state — contaminated sewage discharge, the water abstraction volume for economic needs, the sanitary and hygienic conformity of water samples to normal; impact degree on the lithosphere — determination through the disturbed land proportion indicator. The integral indicator — the anthropogenic load index (IAN) is obtained by calculating the arithmetic mean of the points, from the values established as the individual indicators evaluation result. It is established that in the industrial Kuzbass conditions, the main factor that determines the differences in the population life quality is the environment ecological state. For most districts and cities of Kuzbass, the improving prospect the population life quality is primarily related to the reduction of man-made environmental pressure and, consequently, to the ecological situation improvement.
