Geographical contours of the ecological civilization of Russia

Abstract

The geographical environment and a person are in complex, contradictory, diverse relationships, where a person appears as a motivated social being, whose decisions and actions are mediated by the specifics of the spatial environment, the values of the social group, and the needs of the individual. Ecological civilization is a multi-valued concept with an intuitively perceived, but not scientifically formalized meaning, which in recent decades has received ideological and political predestination and practical implementation in Chinese transcription. In a linear perspective, the vector of progressive civilizational movement was designated in this way: from the primitive barbarism of the appropriating economy to the emergence of technology and language, from natural “getting used to” in the space of nature to an ever-decreasing dependence on natural conditions and biological resources to the auetoposis assertion of human life. For the practical implementation of the civilizational approach, some results of the use of a geographical algorithm for assessing wildlife in Russia are proposed. Wildlife is a special image, a philosophical concept, a fundamental idea, a geographical image, a practical constructivist paradigm, practically unknown to the scientific community of Russia. Quantitative information is given on the degree of conservation of wildlife, the maps show the dichotomy, the existence of cultural landscapes and urbanized territories and natural geosystems for the entire territory of Russia. The geographic contours of natural ecosystems in the physical-geographical countries and ecological-landscape macro-regions of Russia are shown.
