Anisimov* Sofia Kovalevskaya Street, 17B, Volgograd-city, 400081, Russia *Corresponding author: anisimovap@mail.ru ABSTRACT: This paper shows that ecological and legal culture is an integral part of the generic scientific category ‘ecological culture’, which reveals only partly the relationship between society and nature that falls under the rules of international and national law. Another, no less important, distinguishing feature of the sub-category ‘ecological and legal culture’ is that it assumes the presence not only of knowledge about the state of nature or its internal interrelationships, but also of skills through legal means to protect nature from negative anthropogenic influence. In the context of the emergence of new environmental threats of the 21st century (e.g. climate change, ozone holes, and the impact on nature of bio- and nanotechnologies), it is necessary to form a new public system of values, knowledge and practical skills for legal (including judicial) environmental protection by the citizens of Russia, which will require the alteration of education, training programs and upbringing.

Ecological and legal culture is an integral part of the generic scientific category ‘ecological culture’, which reflects only that part of the relationship between society and nature that falls under the rules of international and national law
Another no-lessimportant distinguishing feature of the sub-category ‘ecological and legal culture’ is that it assumes the awareness of the state of nature or its internal interrelationships, but it provides for the possession of legal means aimed at the protection of nature from negative anthropogenic phenomena
Summary
The lasting increase in anthropological pressure on nature sharply raises the issue of new interaction models development, without which life on planet Earth may cease. Ecological culture is successively formed in the public consciousness and behavior of people throughout life and activities of generations by means of continuous environmental education Such an education contributes to a healthy lifestyle, the spiritual growth of society, sustainable social and economic development, and environmental security of the country as a whole and every individual (Barulina 2010). Along with compliance with ecological norms, a citizen with a high level of environmental and legal culture is able to use knowledge in the field of law for judicial or administrative protection of the environment or its components They will be able to protect individual and collective environmental interests. I will continue to consider the environmental legal culture in this perspective
