Abstract
The nature of public perception of global environmental problems and ways to solve them becomes a paradigm for the development of civilization. The lack of resources necessary for the normal life of people has caused the development of a complex of catastrophic processes. Among them, the most important are: water, food and demographic crises, as well as the crisis of biodiversity, which consists in the widespread destruction of areas of the environment suitable for habitat of plants and animals. The real solution to these problems requires two conditions to be met. First, it is the creation of a scientific basis for the development of a global strategy for the preservation of conditions on the planet suitable for the existence of humans and other organisms. Secondly, it is the need to change the paradigm of environmental perception. The global technogenesis of the biosphere inevitably leads to a widespread transformation of natural conditions. All ecosystems are being transformed into natural and technical systems. The preservation of conditions favorable for human life and other biological species in them is possible only on the basis of the creation and inclusion in these systems of technical means that perform regulatory functions. This approach contradicts traditional ecological thinking and requires a transition to a new paradigm, which can be designated as creative.
Highlights
The paradigm of the development of civilization is the general concept of perception of the existing reality, the tendencies of its development and the possibilities of their change, prevailing in the public consciousness [1]
In ancient times, the basis of the perception of the world was formed by the postulates, according to which all observed phenomena are a direct or indirect result of the activity of specific deities
The global technogenesis of the environment necessitates the development of ecological globalistics - a new interdisciplinary field of activity, including scientific and theoretical research and the development of actions to preserve and improve the state of the environment on a global scale
Summary
The paradigm of the development of civilization is the general concept of perception of the existing reality, the tendencies of its development and the possibilities of their change, prevailing in the public consciousness [1]. Despite the periodic change in the public consciousness of the basic ideas about the world around us, the structure of this paradigm, as well as the factors of its formation, remain unchanged from ancient times to the present day It has always been based on a certain set of postulates that are accepted by the minds of most people as a fact of life that does not require proof. The most significant objective factor contributing to the change in development paradigms is the real danger of the situation developing without making fundamentally new decisions that run counter to the prevailing postulates and stereotypes of thinking From this point of view, the need to change the paradigm of the development of world civilization in the field of perception by public consciousness of the role of man in the formation of his environment is becoming more and more urgent [3, 4]. The aim of the work is to substantiate the choice of a paradigm that can become the basis for a real solution to this problem
