In this article the authors look at the topic of the crisis of Western civilisation in the context of the ecological crisis. In the opinion of a Polish ecophilosopher, the latter is a symptom of the failure of a scientific-technological civilization, which Skolimowski often contemptuously calls plastic. In the first part, the authors present Skolimowski's diagnosis of Western civilisation, in the second part they describe the postulate of a new ecological civilization. The Polish ecophilosopher is aware of the fact that this requires a new look at philosophy itself, a new science, new ethics, a new education and even a new ecological spirituality. The recurring adjective 'new' points on the one hand to the necessity of breaking with current philosophical tradition and on the other – to opening up to and looking for inspiration in present existential dimensions; this referring mainly to broadly understood spirituality. In the last part of the article the authors take a critical look at H. Skolimowski's civilizational project, at the same time holding in great regard his work and his engagement in relation to environmental protection.
