Istota i cechy współczesnego kryzysu ekologicznego

Ecological thread in the description of a crisis situation appeared several dozen years ago. The concept of an ecological crisis is a very popular one nowadays and some people even tend to abuse it. An ecological crisis is rather difficult to describe. It is a multidimensional concept and a complex one, therefore it is not possible to provide an explicit definition thereof. It may be considered in respect of its ecological aspect, social and economic aspect, anthropological aspect, cybernetic aspect or thermodynamic aspect. Most of the definitions of an ecological crisis focus on ecological aspects alone. Ecological crisis we witness nowadays is the result of our own mistakes which should be repaired. To extricate from this situation we have to change the strategy of social and economical development, to change the technology and first of all to change our way of thinking.
