Abstract
The article is devoted to the conceptual core of civilization’s comprehension. This core is formed by the concepts of ecology, humanism and safety. Special attention is paid to the issue of humanist attitude to the world that lead to establishing new paradigms and maintaining fragile balance of the anthropo-socio-techno-natural complex. The author of the article reasons the idea of that modern versions of humanism are related to the establishment of environmental thinking, improvement of environmental education and enhancement of environmental safety. The paper analyzes forces and determinants affecting environmental safety. Finally, it is concluded that, firstly, conceptual core of new civilization’s consciousness is altered. Secondly, ecology acts as a new form of humanism. The point of humanism intensity had moved from human to the alive space. And thirdly, indefinite existence of civilization is given by the collision of the natural and the artificial in the human habitat. Environmental safety should define the priorities of environmental policy, develop precise principles, means and methods to ensure environmental safety and sustainable development through the analysis and study of all the determinants that allow to predict the future of environmental development and form a new environmental worldview.
