Abstract: Strengthening social and environmental crisis, and the growth of environmental crimes in all states and regions worries specialists in many scientific and practical spheres - lawyers, environmentalists, economists, politicians, and society as a whole.  Unfortunately, the crime does not stay the same, the new threats, the social spheres are widening, including environmental - social ones, and they are influenced by crimes encroaching upon environment and its components, the scale of harm to natural resources and objects is growing, as well as the number of violations of environmental rights of people and interests of businesses and states. Specialized literature, mass media and analytical documents of late years refer to worsening of situation regarding treating various types of waste: dangerous, common, construction, radioactive. All of these circumstances fall within the scope of interests of specialists in criminal law and forensiс sciences, who are striving to develop necessary measures against the violations of treatment of waste and downsizing its negative influence  upon the environment and human health.  Such measures include criminal administrative responsibility, legislative provisions  on compensation of damage to environment, prophylactic measures against violations of norms on waste.

Abstract: The author studies the sources of European law in their relation with the environmental law. The author provides detailed analysis of various acts of the EU bodies: primary law (founding treaties), unwritten primary law; directives and recommendations, environmental and political action plans. The acts are analyzed based on their nature, sphere of application and subjects. The author provides specific examples of various acts of European environmental law. In particular, the author considers that environmental political action plans are sources of European environmental law is spite of their non-normative nature. It is due to the fact that environmental political action plans provide for goals and priorities of environmental policy, include general descriptions of measures for a certain time span, they establish global connections and development tendencies, provide orientations, serve as prerequisites and preparation measures for the legislative measures at the Community level and specify them. Finally, the author makes a conclusion that forms of normative legal acts may be regarded as sufficient and efficient elements of law-making. However, their application in environmental law (and other branches of law) is mediated via many factors, and first of all via the environmental policy of the EU.

Abstract: Packing industry in Russia has been practically formed as a branch but its legal status is still needed to be fixed legally. It would guarantee a necessary state support, provide a methodological support which is missing now and overcome the notable disbalance between possibilities of the packing industry and its scientific basis, equipment and raw material provision. In this regard, the author f the article analyzes the worldwide trends in the sphere of treatment of packaging waste from the point of view of environment, economics and law as well as the laws and standards regulating the treatment of packaging waste in Russia including the Moscow Region. Based on teh analysis of foreign and Russian experience, the author proves that it is certainly necessary to make an individual law regulating the treatment of packaging waste.  Implementation of the above mentioned legal system in Russia would allow to solve nettlesome issues of the packaging industry which has started to form as a branch of industry back in mid 90's of XX century.  Taking into account that this is quite a new approach for Russia, the author suggests to develop the draft law for Moscow on Packaging and Packaging Materials. It would allow to evaluate mechanisms of the federal draft law at the level of the Russian Federation constituents and local goverment and develop necessary additional acts as well as to get enough experience to further introduce this law in another regions of Russia.
