  • Environment under the influence of motor transport in the coastal zone of the city of Volgograd

    The article provides overview information on the importance of ensuring the environmental safety of environmental sulfur, on factors designed to counter the adverse effects of pollutants on the urban environment, aimed at creating comfortable living conditions for the population, and protecting the living environment from the harmful effects of transport. Information is provided on trends in increasing the anthropogenic impact of greenhouse pollution on climate change, Decree of the President of the Russian Federation (dated October 26, 2023 No. 812) on the approval of the climate doctrine, which will be the direction for further research into greenhouse pollution from motor vehicles, data from background stations of the Russian Federation are presented on the increment of CO2 concentrations in the surface layer and in the atmosphere, on the volume of greenhouse gases from the transport flow. Motor transport is indicated as the most influential factor in urban environmental pollution and the negative impact of polluted air on public health in Volgograd. The results of field studies of the intensity of vehicle traffic along the newly commissioned highway “0-th Longitudinal” in Volgograd are presented, a trend of growth in overall intensity, starting from 2019, and an increase in the intensity of low-capacity public transport along newly designed routes are revealed. The directions of necessary research to reduce the environmental impact on the ecology of the coastal zone are shown.

  • Possible reduction of the carbon footprint from small water transport in the coastal zone of the city of Volgograd

    The article shows the predominant location of the city on the river, the modern development of transport navigation, including for local, suburban and intracity transportation, there has been an ever-increasing demand for individual water transport used to travel by water to places of rest. Bank protection and construction of a road in the right-bank zone of Volgograd will contribute to the development of the transport network and tourist infrastructure of the city. With the growth of the fleet of motor boats, which use mainly propeller motors to drive the propellers of river craft, the volume of fuel consumed also grows. The first "carbon footprint" on the water surface from motor boats appears at the stage of refueling the outboard motor. The second "carbon footprint" is associated with the design features of the propeller-driven boat motor of small river vessels, which release exhaust gas below the surface of the water. Therefore, ensuring the environmental safety of the coastal zone of the city is an urgent issue for research. The proposed possibility of reducing the carbon footprint when organizing a walking water route along the coast of the city through the use of an electric drive from renewable energy sources for small water transport will be a factor in the greening of the coastal zone, contributing to the revitalization of boat tourism and services for organizing active recreation of citizens and visiting guests.
