Abstract
The article discusses some environmental and social problems of sustainable development of Kyrgyzstan. The environmental goals of sustainable development are: firstly, preserving the environment for future generations; secondly, providing a favorable natural environment for the life and health of the current generation. The article provides a comparative analysis of atmospheric air quality in Bishkek and regions of the country over the past 5 years. Atmospheric air is an important component of the natural environment, which has a strong impact on public health. The population of Bishkek is 1,113,800 people, which is 15% of the total population of the country. The population of rural areas in Kyrgyzstan is larger than the population of the country's cities. During the analysis, it was revealed that the total air pollution index in Bishkek in 2022 increased by 2 times compared to 2018. As a result, the incidence of respiratory diseases in the population of Bishkek increased by 9.87%. The author believes that there is an inverse relationship between air pollution indicators and the well-being of the population. The poverty level in the regions of Kyrgyzstan and in Bishkek has increased significantly over the past 5 years. The author has formulated recommendations for reducing poverty and improving the well-being of the population, which will help reduce the negative impact of people on the atmosphere and other elements of the natural environment.
