Actual situation in Russia
• Energy losses in Russian heat systems are the biggest ones in the world;
• Russia takes the second place in size of oil gas losses which is about 5% of natural gas production in 2006;
• In 2007 Russia took the 19-th place in energy use among 128 countries (0,34 kg of oil equivalent per $1 GDP).

The global negative tendencies in process of working heat and energy networks
• loses in heat and energy networks in process of transmission;
• high values of energy use in industry caused by significant wears and tears of machinery;
• loses of housing and communal services caused by irresponsible behavior to heat and electricity saving.

Conclusions
• Thus, the world financial crisis has led to growth rate reducing but has not led to significant reducing of environmental pressure yet.
• However, many of crisis implications are not so obviously at the present time. In general, the results show what crisis is time to opportunities, which may lead to increasing of raw orientation and dependences from raw-material export, environmental degradation or, otherwise, lead to economies based on innovations.
