ON THE «NOOSPHERE» NOTION IN UKRAINIAN LEGISLATION

Abstract

The author states that Volodymyr Vernadsky as a natural scientist and a philosopher has reconsidered the content of «noosphere» notion in the context of his doctrine of biosphere, humanistic ideology and the role of scientific thought as a planetary (and cosmic) phenomenon. From the point of view of the latter, the biosphere smoothly transforms into the noosphere, as, during the cognition of nature’s laws and technical development, the humanity gives it the signs of new and higher degree of systematization. Thus, from the standpoint of philosophers and environmentalists the notions of anthropo-, socio-and technosphere are identical to the concept of «noosphere», sums up the author. Having carefully researched the current legislation of Ukraine, it is possible to say, that never a one normative act at law level uses or defines the noosphere notion, though it is found in current leglislation, e. g. The Complex State Energy Conservation Programme of Ukraine. Evidently, the wide exploration of wind, solar, geothermal, small rivers’ hydropower, as well as biomass and other non-conventional fuels are supposed to save the noosphere. So, it is shown that natural sciences use the «noosphere» notion, while the law uses only it’s doctrinal interpretation. The definition of «noosphere» notion and dependent determination of its adjacency with the notions of techno, socio and anthroposphere has been proposed. The need of further environmental legislation improvement on the ground of taking into consideration natural, historical and technical economic achievements of Ukraine as well as foreign countries experience has been outlined. The necessity of wider «noosphere» notion usage in legal acts, it’s disclosure and legislative fixation, that would let us avoid future environmental crisis in the modern conditions of human impact on natural processes has been proved.
