The level of ecological culture of modern student youth.
Abstract
This paper examines the role of environmental education as a factor in the formation of culture, an instrument for minimizing the consequences of an environmental catastrophe, and overcoming the ecological crisis. Based on the study of the state of the ecological consciousness of student youth, arguments are drawn on the need for fundamental changes in educational programs. This trend places one of the most important values on the formation of education, which forms the personality. Ecological culture is a qualitatively new phenomenon of the spiritual sphere, which characterizes the true intelligibility of the individual. Ecological culture is considered as a set of characteristics of a person that contribute to the harmonious development of individuality.
