Abstract: The article discusses IT technologies in the implementation of climate projects. Modern digital technologies

are developing very quickly and are present in all business sectors. It is IT that helps companies to make the

transition to a model of advanced harmless production, which means the use of safe materials, intelligent

systems, etc. Corporate Social Responsibility is what promotes sustainable development and is the basis of

the transition to zero carbon emissions. By supporting initiatives to develop effective standards for

environmental protection and protection, companies are making a small but very important contribution, and

new products, coupled with professional expertise, provide opportunities for making sure investments leading

to the main global goal of protecting the environment.

1 INTRODUCTION

The Ministry of Economy has prepared the first

version of the concept of the Russian system of

climate projects. It describes the rules for

implementing projects to reduce greenhouse gas

emissions and the circulation of carbon units in the

Russian Federation, which, according to the authors,

will create conditions for green investments and

reduce the carbon footprint of Russian products.

Experts welcome the appearance of the document, but

talk about the need for a full-fledged national system

of carbon regulation.

The essence of the concept is a description of

approaches to the implementation of projects to

reduce greenhouse gas emissions or increase the

absorption capacity of ecosystems by Russian

companies.

The main effect should be “creating conditions for

attracting green investments and reducing the carbon

footprint of products” through the development of

national standards for climate projects and the

creation of their national register and the Russian

projects expressed in tons of CO2 equivalent, which

can be sold or set off, all transactions will be recorded

in the register) (Ginzburg, = 1997).

The Ministry of Economy notes that the concept

is "synchronized with the draft law on state regulation

of greenhouse gas emissions and the Paris Agreement

(PS)", and hopes that the Russian system "can be

linked to PS mechanisms and other national and

international registers of carbon units."

2 MATERIALS AND METHODS

The global market for carbon units began to take

shape during the first period of the Kyoto Protocol

(2008–2012). In 2015, a new global climate treaty,

the Paris Agreement, was approved, the economic

mechanisms of which are still being developed. So

far, a number of regional schemes operate in the

world, including in the EU, a number of provinces in

China, a number of US states and Canada (usually in

the form of quota systems and carbon markets), and

voluntary schemes.

Currently, environmental issues are quite acute.

There are a huge number of environmental problems:

global warming, climate change, depletion of natural

resources, improper waste disposal, deforestation,

ozone depletion, and air pollution. Environmental

pollution is one of the most dangerous threats

(Temnov, 1987).

According to the Levada Center, Russians

consider environmental pollution more dangerous

than terrorism, military clashes, man-made disasters

and other threats facing humanity. 48% of

respondents agree with this. At the same time, air

pollution causes even greater worries and doubts

among people. FinExpertiza, an auditing and

consulting company, estimates that in the first quarter

of 2020, the number of cases of high air pollution

increased by 57% compared to the same period last

year.

Environmental monitoring is the information

basis for a wide range of environmental activities.

The data obtained are used for scientific research,

environmental assessment and management decision-

making.

The Global Environmental Monitoring System

provides insight into the ambiguous impact of

anthropogenic activities on the environment. For the

analysis of the received data, as well as for

forecasting based on the results of processing these

data, enormous computing power is allocated. A

convenient and flexible data analysis system is

extremely important for solving environmental

monitoring problems (Temnov, 2000).

It should be noted that one of the most important

components of the environmental policy of each state

is the training of competent specialists capable of

coping with environmental problems of varying

complexity and scale. Here it is worth mentioning

information technology.

Modern digital technologies are developing very

quickly and are present in all business sectors. It is IT

that helps companies to make the transition to a model

of advanced harmless production, which means the

use of safe materials, intelligent systems, etc.

Atos is a global leader in digital transformation,

providing high-tech services in the areas of

consulting, systems integration, managed services

and business process outsourcing, cloud computing,

security and big data management. The company's

annual turnover is 12 billion euros, and the number of

employees is 110,000 people in 73 countries.

3 RESULTS

The accumulated knowledge and experience,

understanding of the peculiarities of doing business

allow us to provide comprehensive solutions for

businesses in various industries. Atos is the

International IT Partner of the Olympic and

Paralympic Games and is also listed on the CAC40

Paris Stock Index. Atos operates under the Atos,

Atos|Syntel and Unify brands.

Atos' goal is to create a digital future that is an

integral part of progress. The broad expertise of Atos

contributes to the development of knowledge and

education in the field of digitalization, bringing our

society closer to scientific and technological

excellence.

Atos enables its customers, employees, and

society as a whole to live, work, and thrive in a safe

and secure information environment.

Atos has long been committed to the path of

sustainable development and provides its customers

with services that help companies achieve digital

transformation in order to protect the environment.

Constantly expanding its portfolio of solutions, the

company acquired the consulting agency EcoAct,

which specializes in developing strategies to combat

negative climate change.

Atos is increasing its sustainability consulting

capacity by joining forces with EcoAct. Based on the

joint expertise of Atos and EcoAct, a global

decarbonization center of excellence will be

established. It will be based on a comprehensive

approach to decarbonization, providing customers

around the world with comprehensive analysis

services, identifying ways to achieve carbon

neutrality, and providing digital solutions to

decarbonize digital and business processes

(Schreiber, 1977).

For the remaining CO2 emissions, voluntary

offsets will be implemented to help companies

achieve carbon neutrality.

The acquisition of EcoAct opens up new

opportunities for the development of the

decarbonization business, allowing Atos to expand its

range of consulting services and start providing

carbon offset services, thus providing unparalleled

value to our customers' business, while also

strengthening Atos' position as a leader in

decarbonized digital business. technologies.

On the way to environmental protection, small

and large enterprises in various industries are faced

with the problem of choosing and implementing a

sustainable development initiative. Every company

needs to have a specific strategy for protecting the

environment in order to achieve a sustainable result

from digital transformation.

It is now of utmost importance to provide clients

with consulting services on the implementation and

integration of innovative technologies that prevent

environmental pollution, including climate risk

analysis.

With the help of experts in the field, it is easier for

leaders of organizations to make informed investment

decisions, drawing on extensive experience in

developing digital transformation programs that meet

customer needs and support their business processes.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that digital

transformation is beneficial primarily to the

companies themselves, because they can draw

attention to their initiatives and thereby contribute to

the development of sustainable development

technologies in other markets. Moreover, artificial

intelligence and the Internet of Things can be used to

intelligently calculate energy efficient production

models (Egamov, 2015).

4 DISCUSSIONS

It cannot be said that IT projects are accounting,

economics and office work. Rather, these are three

directions in which developers will still be moving

towards perfection for a long time, and few people

can see what is beyond the horizon. All the brilliant

achievements in the automation of bureaucratic and

financial-accounting work are patched up to this day

with clouds of auxiliary programs and Excel tables,

without the possibility of automatic transfer of data

from month to month. At the same time, there are

many real areas of application of the work of

developers with a clearly defined task and

functionality that is difficult to implement. There is

no need to think about how to do something

dynamically and beautifully, but you just need to do

it in a practical and efficient way. Practice shows that

it is impossible to rush in the IT field, and one should

not hope for instant success. Information technology

is developing too fast. To count on economic success,

you need to focus on dynamic IT projects that involve

continuous development, and not a specific static

result.

The modern information sphere is a growing

world of threats. No matter how strange it may seem,

but progress in the IT sphere has become steadily

accompanied by an increase in the quantity and

quality of malicious code and negative behavior,

especially by “offended” company employees

(Porfiriev, 2010). It is very difficult to build a bastion

of protection around the entire perimeter of possible

negative phenomena. The other side is constantly

improving the mechanisms and quality of attacks.

This is not an enterprise access system, but

nevertheless such IT projects are extremely in

demand and vital for any company, especially for

large businesses. When formulating such tasks, the

risks of IT projects are significantly lower if the

development team takes already tested and

implemented ideas as a basis, and does not develop

“its own opinion” from the very beginning. Currently,

there are many proven solutions for creating high-

quality protection, and most importantly, they all

provide the accumulation of knowledge and

heuristics for distributed application in the field. In

fact, relying on a well-known solution, a company

can make its IT project as a connection of its own

infrastructure to protection mechanisms that “by

themselves” develop in line with the growth of

threats.

Corporate Social Responsibility is what promotes

sustainable development and is the basis of the

transition to zero carbon emissions. By supporting

initiatives to develop effective standards for

environmental protection and protection, companies

are making a small but very important contribution,

and new products, coupled with professional

expertise, provide opportunities for making sure

investments leading to the main global goal of

protecting the environment.

Now the cost of energy for most companies is

about a third of all production costs. At the same time,

we are seeing a gradual decline in the cost of

renewable energy. It is also worth considering that

many companies at all stages of the production of

products expect energy suppliers to reduce CO2

emissions - and no industry is an exception.

By adhering to the policy of reducing the carbon

footprint, the company reduces its negative impact on

the environment, which undoubtedly makes it more

attractive to job seekers. Also, by conducting

campaigns on sustainable development, enterprises

contribute to the promotion of responsible

consumption ideas (Nikoláeva, 2018).

There are three main tools through which

companies switch to renewable energy sources:

• electricity purchase agreements;

• solar photovoltaic systems;

• mini power plants.

If an enterprise is located in a green energy area,

it may sign an agreement with the utility or some

independent power producers to purchase energy

from renewable sources. This helps reduce your

carbon footprint.

However, a number of enterprises face

difficulties:

• Renewable energy is not sustainable – often

due to weather conditions it stops being

produced;

• A synergy of conventional and renewable

energy is required, rather than a replacement

for the former.

5 CONCLUSIONS

Because of the lack of understanding of this, many

companies waste money on expensive developments.

neutrality", Kadyrov Chechen State University Chechen Republic, Grozny, st. Sher

Thus, the article studied IT technologies in the

implementation of climate projects. Modern digital

technologies are present in all business sectors.

IT helps companies make the transition to a

leading-edge, clean manufacturing model, which

includes the use of safe materials, smart systems, and

more.

So, summing up the results of the graduation

project, it should be noted that information

technology is a set of methods and means of

purposefully changing any properties of information.

Information technology in the field of management

makes the highest demands on the "human factor",

having a fundamental impact on the qualifications of

the employee. Information technology is an important

component of the process of using information

resources.
