He noted that the conference, held in honor of the outstanding ecologist Anatoly Shchepovsky, has already become a good tradition.

Conferences held in recent years contributed to the cooperation of industry and science specialists in solving problems in the field of rational nature management," Rustem Kamalov emphasized.
"It is very important that the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Republic of Tatarstan pays much attention to such public events. The experience used in Tatarstan should be adopted by other regions of Russia," said Vladimir Gerasimov, head of the regional communications department of one of the Russian oil companies. He highly appreciated the role of this event and noted that it is at the conference where various companies can tell about the activities they are carrying out on the territory of the region. Thus they will be able to convey the real situation with the environment to a wide range of people.
