The twelve-year strategy focuses on illuminating in a scientific way the direction and ways for decisively improving the country's environmental protection work in keeping with the developing reality. Its general goal is to prevent the environmental pollution, put the overall ecological environment of the country on a recovery state and lay a material and technical foundation for switching over to the green economy.
It is planned to increase the electricity output by natural energy, the recycling rate of industrial waste, the overall utility rate of domestic garbage and the city afforestation rate, along with expansion of the area of natural reserves. Also, the strategy envisages the reduction of greenhouse gas emission by 16.4 percent until 2030.
