Abstract
The study’s objective is to identify factors that can have a productive and positive impact on the formation of environmental culture. The authors use an interdisciplinary approach in the study. Thus, the methods of system analysis (methods of integration, convergence, structurization, optimization, etc.) focus on a comprehensive study of contemporary problems of ecological culture. Applying the methodology of legal taxonomy allows outlining the basic principles contributing to the level of ecological culture. Among the special methods, the method of ecologization is of particular importance in the study. The results of the study were the identification of a complex of factors. There are positive and negative factors among them. Negative factors are due to the lack of environmental values in people’s minds, the state’s perception of environmental relations as insignificant or secondary in the life of society, the rejection of innovative concepts of ecologization of economic activity, etc. Positive factors include the effectiveness of the principles of environmental law, the development of a system of environmental education of citizens, education of environmental responsibility, the collective search for adequate solutions to address the growing environmental risks, etc. The novelty of the work lies in the statement of the problem, which is that the formation of environmental culture is of paramount importance for sustainable development and environmental security of states and the entire world community.
Highlights
One of the factors that can affect changes in the environmental situation is a high level of environmental culture
General awareness of the urgent importance of environmental problems in the life of current and future generations determines the importance of the study of factors influencing the environmental culture
The content of the attributes that characterize the concept of environmental culture does not include such an element as an assessment of the environmental consequences of the activities carried out
Summary
One of the factors that can affect changes in the environmental situation is a high level of environmental culture. Despite significant efforts in studying such a phenomenon as environmental culture, attention is focused only on such elements as education, training, and enlightenment, and the sociocultural role of the state and society remains of little importance. One of the reasons is the unappreciated importance of ecological culture in the life of modern society. In this sense, it is obvious that the state environmental policy should move towards changes focused on the strategy of forming an ecological culture [5]
