The Essence of the Environmental Crisis

Abstract

The article examines the development of understanding of the nature and content of the global anthropogenic environmental crisis as an example of the process of formation of VI. Vernadsky’s scientific and philosophical theory of understanding the evolution of complex systems, further developed in the contemporary natural and social Sciences. The author sees the essence of the ecological crisis in the change of the parameters of the fundamental constants of nutrient a particular ecosystem, which means the change of living conditions of the correlated communities of living organisms. This definition of the essence of the ecological crisis is lawful for both endogenous and anthropogenic environmental crises for the local ecosystems and the planetary ecosystem, the biosphere. The basis for verification of such understanding of ecological crisis, as every other, is a modern global anthropogenic environmental crisis, that is the expression of the Mature forms of the crisis of extremely complex system “nature - society”.
