Abstract

Until recently, social development and regeneration of the environment were in dynamic equilibrium.However, in recent years, despite the enormous ecological reserves of biosphere and its self-cleaning ability, extensive growth of world population, rapid growth of industry, agriculture and municipal services and other anthropogenic factors have led to a dramatic negative impact on nature.First of all it concerns the pollution of the biosphere with chemicals xenobiotics, violation of natural geochemical cycles and intense, irrational use of natural resources. Today, therefore, extremely important is the formation of a new environmental consciousness of citizens. The introduction of specialized environmental education should promote to generation of environmental worldview, to instil in them a love for their land, produce lean skills and rational use of natural resources and lead to the creation of an effective system of environmental safety.
