The current conference, being a continuation of this, covers topical issues. In general, there are important tasks ahead related to the application of environmentally friendly technologies, increasing 'green' production, promoting recycling, and restoring polluted areas. In a word, we should achieve economic progress and social welfare based on the principle of protecting the environment. The role of the private sector, especially small and medium businesses, is significant in this work. The main purpose of today's conference is to promote the concept of green SMEs in the transition to a green economy," the minister added.
