The problems of the human interaction with the environment are becoming more and more urgent at the modern stage of development of civilization. The analysis of the environmental situation in the Kemerovo region leads to the conclusion that someone must inform the general public about the existing problems first before these problems can be reduced and solved. It is only possible with the help of the system of environmental education. That is why the politicians, who create and apply control measures in the environmental field, can and must attract the resources of the public to reach the common goal of protecting the environment, thus making the laws work for the welfare of mankind.

The ecologization of the educational system means a tendency of environmental ideas, principals and approaches to enter other subjects, as well as training of environmentally conscious specialists in different fields of industry, especially in the following areas:

• World view. Independent of the field in which the future specialist is going to work, he has to have a certain world view, certain foundation for his activity, to see his place in the biosphere and lean on the achievements of natural sciences;
• Ecological professionalism of the future specialist. This area is connected to the nature of the field in which the student is going to work, with his ability to make decisions taking into account the environmental factors;
• Training of specialists who are able to solve problems connected to the human interaction with the environment. This area makes it possible to combine the environmental knowledge with the broad training in the field of economics and law;
• Professional advancement (systems of additional professional education) of managing personnel and specialists in the industrial sector and public education.

It is impossible to overcome the environmental crisis of the biosphere by using only technical and technological means. Furthermore, it is impossible to maintain the balance between the society and nature if the human being doesn’t transform himself, his morality and mentality, but only leans on scientific and technical achievements. This human transformation is hindered by the slow development of the normative-legal, methodological and technological base and inconsistencies in the financial, staff and information support of the educational system both in Russia and abroad.

As a result of joint action of governmental, non-governmental, public and international organizations, it will be possible to gather environmentally important information and take it to the public with the help of environmental education, influence the shaping of public opinion and join efforts to solve the problems of survival under conditions of the industrially developed raw-materials region.
