This book analyses the state of the natural environment and the
causes of its degradation using the biosphere approach. Further,
those issues that must be resolved immediately on the global level
are identified following the ideas defined by V.I. Vernadsky, and
new principles of Man-Nature interaction are pursued. The modern
world currently faces three global trends inducing biosphere
degradation and the aggravation of ecological hazards, namely: a)
rapid and uncontrolled growth of human population on the Earth and
insufficient natural resources to sustain it; (b) technogenesis
development; and (c) global climate change and the aggravation of
natural disasters. Ecological safety and military security are
becoming the crucial conditions for the survival of modern
civilization. To mitigate the ecological strain on the Earth, the
technogenesis strategy should be changed and many other pressing
issues must be resolved. These problems should be addressed using
the biosphere approach, because the individual human being is the
biosphere constituent, and his or her safety cannot be provided
without maintaining the entire natural system on our planet.
