In article are considered questions of state regulation to use of mineral resources on the materials of the fuel and energy complex of the USA as the most important component of the state policy in the sphere of nature. To determine the influence of the dependence of the U.S. economy from the import of energy resources to the energy security of the country, the results of the analysis of the main directions of long-term energy policy of the state. In article are investigated positive and negative aspects of modern American government regulation, which is based on a dual system of patent access for lands owned by the state with a certain set of mineral resources and system lease and license to access exploitation of primary resources the Earth's interior, while the maximum effective daily rate of resource extraction does not cause irreparable damage to the process of exploitation of mineral deposits.

Anthropocentrism is one of the key concepts associated with a broken relationship between humans, or human society, and the natural world. An excessive focus on the human is among the debated shortcomings that exacerbates environmental crises. In environmental humanities, it is especially addressed by environmental ethics. Anthropocentrism as a problem also steps into the expert debate on environmental or ecologically oriented theatre and performing arts. These media are historically understood as media focused on the human, human society, human relationships, events, and history. In the presented paper, some of the starting points of post-humanist philosophy that could enrich contemporary theories of theatre and performance art are considered, to help broaden their scope of attention to a group of specific works. These are various works of art confronting anthropocentrism, or using approaches that mediate non-anthropocentric and post-anthropocentric knowledge. From a theatrological point of view, they are identified in the framework of works which Hans-Thies Lehmann calls post-dramatic theatre, however, from the perspective of philosophy, they are in a certain relation with the essential ideas of post-humanism as defined by Francesca Ferrando and Rosi Braidotti, to give an example. The study’s ambition is to provide fertile ground for a continued and more thorough perspective of a group of works that fall under performing arts (drama, theatre play, performance art), which primarily deal with the relationship between the human and non-human nature and offer unconventional ways of representing non-human nature or reflections on the relationship between non-human nature and the human.

In order to address the current global challenges, including climate change, it is helpful to connect environmental and technology ethics, and bring in political philosophy. After briefly exploring some relations between AI and climate change, this essay draws on my recent work – in particular the book Green Leviathan or the Poetics of Political Liberty – to discuss the topic of political freedom in the light of climate change and AI in the Anthropocene. Starting from the need for changing human behaviour into more climate and environmentally friendly directions, it discusses nudging and climate change, warns for the danger of green authoritarianism, and, inspired by the capabilities approach and critical theory, explores notions of freedom that go beyond the libertarianism authoritarianism dilemma. This leads to a consideration of more relational notions of freedom that link freedom to justice and human flourishing and to a brief reflection on anthropocentrism and the modern focus on control.
