PROBLEMS OF UNIFICATION OF LEGAL TERMINOLOGY IN THE AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION AND ENVIROMENTAL NURTURING

Abstract

The article studies the question of the formation and application of the terminology in the ecological-legal areas, in particular regarding the determination of the legal content of such definitions as “environmental education” and “environmental nurturing”. It is substantiated that on the doctrinal level the definition of “ecological education” is more common, in the content of which are often included elements of ecological nurturing, connecting these processes with the process of getting the education of different levels, in such a way artificially limiting the area of application of the obtained results. Author’s definitions of the terms “environmental education” and “environmental nurturing” are given, proposals on their legal consolidation with the aim of further differentiation and development and ensuring the transition from declarative proclamation to actual realization are formulated.
