Abstract

The work provides a socio-philosophical analysis of the most significant environmental determinants of sustainable development. The article identifies two main groups as environmental determinants of sustainable development. The first group of determinants is formed by environmental determinants of sustainable development in themselves, which emerge as a result of solving a number of separate environmental problems. The second group consists of determinants which are interconnected with environmental determinants of sustainable development and arising on the way of solving a number of separate global problems of modern age, which are closely connected and intertwined with environmental issues. Keywords-global problems; environmental issues; environmental determinants of sustainable development; modern technogenic civilization I.
