The author shows in his article that hopes related to globalization, which were also supposed to overcome the results of ecological crisis, have not come true. Such status quo is connected with the fact that nowadays the man has biggest influence on functioning of the world ecosystem, the man who exists in two environments simultaneously: social and cultural ones. According to the author all crisis phenomena have a global range, and what is more they consist of both environments in which the man functions. Therefore, every crisis, ecological one included, is severely felt, especially by people. Human communities were able to function in any environment, if they could accept and realize a form of the rule of sustainable development, which included functioning of anthroposphere and biosphere at the same time. Communities which were not able to do this were collapsing and even disappeared. Concluding, the author claims that also now there exists such a requirement, and thus the rule of sustainable development, propagated nowadays, is a consequence of historical experience of our species and the best way to provide optimum conditions of development for both humanity and natural environment.
