The problem of providing resource and environmental safety, efficiency natural and economic potential of the area is one of the priorities for each region of Ukraine. Therefore, this article developed and scientifically sound methodological principles of assessing risks and threats of resource and environmental safety in the context of sustainable development of the regions of Ukraine as the basis for the formation of a regional strategy for resource and environmental safety. Found that in virtually all regions of Ukraine (except Khmelnytskyi and Chernihiv regions) were exceeded the threshold of environmental health risk (0.05) and a trend towards its growth, which is associated with long practice environmentally unjustified distribution of productive forces and the effects of existing uncovered damage pollution of previous periods and with the level of socio-economic disadvantage in the regions. It is proved that in order to reduce threats and risks of resource and ecological character of regional socio-economic development is first necessary to implement a comprehensive system for the collection and utilization of secondary resources, to develop mechanisms to promote economic development of the sector, as well as to maximize the use of the internal energy potential of the regions, while minimizing damage to the environment, in particular bioenergy. Theoretical and methodological basis of the study were the results of fundamental and applied research in the field of economic theory and regionalism, environmental economics, research and development of domestic and foreign scholars on governance and resource potential of the region. The results obtained allowed the research to identify ways of improving the system of environmentally sound development of the regions of Ukraine, aimed at improving the efficiency of use of natural and economic potential of the territory and resources.
