The article examines the general course of federal policy in the Russian Federation with regard to the development of the car market in the electric vehicle segment. Government policy should aim to reduce the percentage of vehicles with internal combustion engines (ICE). As of early 2022, projects for the production of electric cars and electric motors are being developed in the Russian Federation and are in the implementation stage. The raw material base in the Russian Federation makes it possible to produce electric vehicles and their components without exporting raw materials. The increase in mineral production is necessary to boost the rate of production of high-tech and innovative products for various industry segments. Trends in the global energy transition are reflected not only in the dynamics of the oil and gas market but also in the development of related industries. They influence the demand for different types of metals and minerals. It is well known that clean technologies require much more metals than their fossil fuel based counterparts. Rare earth metals have now become an integral part of green technology as they are widely used in wind turbine generators, engines for electric vehicles.

“…For example, road transportation was the main source of NO x , being responsible for 39% of these emissions [11]. Air pollution is considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) as the most hazardous type of pollution in urban areas, associated with many harmful health impacts, morbidities, and premature mortality [12]. Road traffic is also the biggest source of noise pollution in Europe, which according to the WHO, is the second most hazardous environmental problem.…”

Promoting urban sustainability has been on the agenda of researchers, planners, and policymakers. This paper uses quantitative and qualitative approaches to evaluate the sustainability of the Cypriot city of Limassol through transportation and green spaces indicators. The quantitative approach relies on a geostatistical evaluation of six indicators to describe the transportation sector and the proximity and provision of urban green spaces. The qualitative approach is based on a questionnaire (N = 387) conducted in the city. Results showed that car trips represent more than 90% of the modal share, and around 90% of the city’s transportation infrastructure is designed for cars. In terms of urban green spaces, only 5% of the areas with the highest population density are within 300 m of a green space > 2 ha. The questionnaire confirmed that 71% of the residents are not satisfied with the conditions provided by the city to walk and cycle, while 76% are not satisfied with the green spaces available in the city. This study contributes to informing planners and decision-makers about the need to promote walking, cycling, and greening policies to make Limassol and other similar cities more sustainable.
