The authors substantiate its relationship with the concept of sustainable development and identify the distinctive features of its implementation at the national level. With respect to Russian conditions, they prove the following main areas of building a green economy: waste management; construction, transport, industry; renewable energy sources; agriculture; use and protection of natural resources. The authors suggest the concept of guarantees of building a green economy, which is a list of conditions for its implementation and protection means, and substantiate three of these conditions (with respect to Russia): environmental digitalization; development of environmental entrepreneurship; preparation of the doctrinal (and in theory regulatorily approved) Concept of Russia’s Transition to a Green Economy, which should define the goals and objectives of this transition, criteria and indicators of the achievement of the goals of a green economy, stages of the transition, budgetary and other financing sources and amounts as well as a list of laws and bylaws ensuring this transition.
