838 Words2 Pages

In 2017, EXPO in Astana will be held on the topic “The Energy of the Future”. My aim is to investigate how the symposium can help to Kazakhstan’s economy develop and answer the research question. The question is important, because people of Kazakhstan and all around the world are interested in renewable, clean, free, indigenous and modular sources of energy. Also, Kazakhstan particularly is interested in the development of the economy in the country, because, as the economy grows up, people have better life conditions, social insurance and safety of citizens. As a part of society, I am interested in this topic. I have a strong desire to develop Kazakhstan and I think that EXPO-2017 will contribute to Kazakhstan’s economic development from different sides. As a result, the infrastructure and service will improve, the tourism will increase and the main advantage is that Kazakhstan will approach, make a big step to the concept of “Green Economy”.

EXPO-2017 will be held in 2017 from June 10 to September 10.

    Airports can be considered as important national resources of most countries in the world. The main responsibility of an airport is in transportation of people and goods and in internal and global business. They are where the nation’s aviation system connects with other modes of transportation and where state responsibility for managing and regulating air traffic operations intersects with the role of governments that own and operate most airports. However, most major airports are owned and operated by the private sectors. This is due to several reasons such as to improve efficiency and economic performance, be more competitive as well as to maximize the community’s return from the airport assets in which public enterprise found out to be less efficient in term of its production and management.

  • Russia Environmental Issues Essay

    1206 Words  | 3 Pages

    Currently, most of Russia runs off of energy from oil and natural gas (Bahgat, 2010). Although Russia may have an abundance of these fossil fuels, the burning of these gases is closely equated to acid rain and global climate warming. In addition, Russia also utilizes nuclear energy, which causes radiation and comes with the risk of explosions such as that of Chernobyl. Move forward, the transition to solar, turbine and geothermal power will allow for a decrease in environmental pollution. These new policies and energy changes may take time, but they are ultimately necessary for Russia to reduce its environmental impact. These changes not only provide the potential for Russia to reduce environmental damages, they also open the door for Russia to gain a foothold in the growing market for renewable energy. This shift in the market could not only provide new economic opportunities for Russia, but also support sustainability across the globe. It is essential that all countries invest in such sustainability in order to preserve the Earth’s biodiversity and natural
