Russia needs a new development model, must be at the political level based on the reorientation of values. By changing the indicators of well-being which is always considered as economic indicators, in particular GDP. Since the early 1950s absolutisation of GDP observed as economic growth. However, GDP data do not illustrate the environmental and social problem. GDP growth can mask the social and environmental problems (poverty, income gap, poor health). For countries with large natural capital - GDP growth often occurs on the basis of over-exploitation and depletion of natural resources. The focus on GDP creates a certain contradiction: from political leaders require its maximum growth, while citizens also need to pay more attention to security, reduce air and water pollution, noise reduction, which could lead to a reduction in GDP growth. Sustainable development is impossible without social and environmental quality of growth. We need to develop new approaches to the development and implementation of environmental correction key goals and targets. The world is actively developing new approaches to development: UN(Sustainable Development Indicators), The World Bank (Adjusted net savings), UN (Human Development Index), UN (Integrated Environmental and Economic Accounting), United Nations (Millennium Development Goals), The World Bank (a new look at the wealth of nations).
