Abstract
At present, the irrational use of natural resources and the ever-increasing technogenic impact on the environment lead to numerous ecological disaster zones and disasters. Philosophical judgments and methods of synergetics allow us to study environmental problems at a deeper level: a) to understand the processes of self-organization of systems, features of bifurcations and dissipative structures; b) to formulate the causes of past environmental crises and calculate the probability of their recurrence. Synthesis of methods of physics, biology, chemistry, mathematics and other sciences allows, in the light of synergetics, to apply models of catastrophe theory to solve various ecological problems. The expansion and deepening of the zone of anthropogenic impact on the environment leads to the formation of a new ecosystem with the latest properties and characteristics. The article shows the relationship between systems with different degrees of equilibrium and formulates the potential causes of the next global ecological crisis of the planet.
