V. - Guys, today we will talk about the beautiful planet on which we live. What is it called?

D. - Earth!

the teacher shows the globe

V. - What is this?

D. - This is Earth!

V. - No, this is not the earth, this is a globe model of the earth. If you look at our planet from space, this is exactly what it looks like!

Q. - What color is most on the globe?

Presentation demonstration “The earth is our home - we are all masters in it”.The teacher comments on the slides.

V. - Very beautiful!

V. - However, there are people who have ceased to appreciate the beauty and purity that nature gave us.

Many factories pollute the air, forests are cut down and burned, thousands of tons of dirty water are discharged into rivers. Plants and animals are dying, people are getting sick from smoke and dirty air, and if this is not stopped, then environmental catastrophe and our beautiful planet will turn into a lifeless desert.

D. - No, it’s not completely clean yet!

V. - Yes! Right. This water is not yet clean enough for drinking, but it is quite suitable for watering flowers. We will pour it into watering cans and then water our flowers.

V. - And so that the water can be consumed as food, huge filters are installed at special treatment plants and they purify the water, and also so that dirty water does not fall into the river.

V. - Guys. let's come up with rules for the young ecologists in our kindergarten.

To save nature need to:

1. Don't litter!

2. Do not pick plants!

3. Do not break trees and branches!

4. Do not crush insects!

5. Plant flowers in spring and care for them

6. In winter, make feeders and feed the birds!

7. Turn off the tap and save water!

V. - We will print these rules in our corner and you will tell moms and dads how to take care of nature.

From the history of the holiday

World Environment Day (Ecologist's Day) was established December 15, 1972 at the initiative of the UN General Assembly to “draw public attention to the need to preserve and improve the environment.”

The choice of date was not accidental: on June 5, 1972, a special UN conference on environmental issues was held for the first time. Ecologist Day is a professional holiday for employees of the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Environmental Prosecutor's Office, environmental departments, as well as other public and private environmental organizations.

Traditionally, on this day many environmental events take place - conferences, round tables, forums and presentations, as well as public and environmental organizations organizing exhibitions of children's drawings, cleaning park areas, planting trees and other events aimed at attracting public attention to environmental problems and preserving our environment.

Over the years, the themes of World Environment Day were: “Only one Earth”, “Water is a key resource of life”, “Only one future for our children - development without destruction”, “Organization of the collection, disposal and disposal of hazardous waste: acid rain and energy”, “Tree for peace”, “Youth: population and environment”, “Climate change. The need for a global partnership", "Poverty and the environment - breaking the vicious circle", "One Earth - one family", "For the sake of life on Earth - save our seas", "Enter the World Wide Web of Life", "Green Cities": A Plan for planets!”, “We need seas and oceans! Alive, not dead”, “Forests: using the services of nature”, “Think. Eat. Save”, “Raise your voice, but not sea level!” and others.


Ecologist. Professionogram.

General characteristics of the profession

An ecologist is a specialist who comprehensively studies the impact of human activity on the environment and develops a set of environmental measures.

Nowadays, one of the most powerful factors influencing nature is human activity, the consequences of various human impacts on the living world (industrial pollution, agricultural production, urbanization, tourism, etc.).

Ecology is closely related to economics, legal and moral aspects of environmental management, and politics.

Modern ecology is not only a biological science, but, to a certain extent, also a social one.

Based on environmental laws, laws on nature protection, a system of reserves and wildlife sanctuaries, and Red Books with lists of plants and animals to be protected are developed.

Environmental knowledge is also necessary for the development of practical measures to protect the environment and human health (for example, when creating waste-free technology, in a system for monitoring environmental quality, etc.).

All this is done by specialists - ecologists.

The main place in their work is occupied by research activities.
An ecologist works in sanitary and hygienic, meteorological, scientific institutions, industrial enterprises, and environmental inspections.

Responsibilities of an ecologist:

Research of the state of water, land, air, observation of the life of plants and animals;
research into the influence of the natural environment and food on the health and well-being of people, their genetic apparatus;
identification and classification of current and potential sources of environmental hazards, determination of the influence of various factors on the environment of their nature, degree, scale, real and predicted consequences;
development of complexes of environmental protection measures, their implementation and monitoring of results;
determining the level of compliance of the condition of technical facilities with environmental standards and taking measures to introduce new equipment and technologies that comply with environmental standards.

The main goal of an ecologist's activity– organization of protection of the life and health of people, flora and fauna from the process and consequences of irrational and uncontrolled use by people of the achievements of science and technology.

Main subject of work- nature (study, research of the state and living conditions of humans, animals, plants), accompanying - sign systems (numbers, documents).


In his work, the ecologist uses material (instrumental) means of labor - manual (pen, pencil), mechanical and automatic, control and measuring instruments (chemical and physico-chemical analysis, gas analyzers, biotesters, recording equipment).

In addition, the main ones include its intangible (functional) means - analytical thinking, long-term memory; well-coordinated body, business speech, as well as senses - vision, hearing, smell, touch.


The work of an ecologist has a clearly defined nature and is carried out in accordance with the current ones:
job responsibilities;
legislative and regulatory legal acts;
methodological and guidance materials, environmental standards;
decrees, orders, orders, instructions relating to environmental protection and rational use of natural resources.

The work of an ecologist is organized in such a way that the fulfillment of work tasks depends on the process and result of the actions of other people (team members, specialists from other contact departments).

Functionally, the ecologist is the organizer of his own work - he plans it, distributes the load, changes the methods of performing and solving problems according to changing circumstances.

The ecologist has few contacts - with work colleagues and representatives of related organizations that are connected by common labor functions.
An ecologist has increased responsibility for the life and health of people, animals, and plants.

An ecologist works both in comfortable conditions - indoors (a desk with a PC and communications equipment), and outdoors in constant movement - these are trips to expeditions, nature reserves, and work in field teams.

The following factors can contribute to psychophysiological tension in the work of an ecologist:
increased responsibility for the life and health of humans, animals and plants;
physical exercise;
work in harmful conditions (air pollution, water and soil pollution, vibration, high humidity);
work outdoors.

Requirements of the profession for the individual abilities of a specialist:

Neuropsychic stability;
analytical thinking;
good long-term and short-term memory;
physical endurance.

Requirements of the profession for the personal abilities and qualities of a specialist:

Stress-resistant;
personal organization;
observation;
ability to make decisions;
organizational skills.

Medical contraindications:

The work of an ecologist is not recommended for people with the following diseases:
neuropsychic;
musculoskeletal system;
allergic;
upper respiratory tract;
digestive organs;
visual analyzer.

Pre-vocational education

Knowledge of biology, chemistry, Russian language and literature is required as part of the school curriculum.

Professional education

Ecological professions are taught in institutions of higher professional education.

Related professions

Laboratory ecologist, biologist, sanitary doctor, meteorologist.


Educational institutions specializing in “Ecologist”

The Faculty of Natural Geography was formed in October 1932, at the same time the Department of Chemistry was created. In 1934, a joint department of botany and zoology was organized, which in 1940 was divided into the departments of botany and zoology. In 1960, the Department of Geography was founded in connection with the opening of the specialty “history and geography”, and in 1963 the faculty received the name of natural geography. In 2012, the faculty celebrated the 80th anniversary of its activities.

Currently, the faculty is a center for training specialists: biologists, geographers, teachers (teachers of biology, geography, chemistry).

Poems about ecologist and ecology

green nature,
All the birds and animals
Ecologist protects
With my care.

He tells the people
Worried and loving:
"Who will save nature -
He will save himself."

Let the sea be clean
The fields are blooming,
Let him not know grief
Beloved Earth.



Profession "Ecologist" on the TV channel "PROSVESCHENIE"

Every year people think more and more about the world around them, its condition, resources and their exhaustibility, ecology, and so on. The green world that past generations knew has sunk into oblivion for several decades. Everything was filled with factories, factories, and wood processing concerns. There are more and more cars on the streets, more and more emissions are released into the atmosphere. More and more heavy metals settle in the lungs of people and animals. Further we go, worse it becomes. And so people began to think about the danger and finally realized that they needed to take care of it and do it wisely. This is what the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources did. But the staff for it and some other organizations involved in the state of our environment is being prepared by universities. This direction is called “Ecology and environmental management”. Let's look at the characteristics and functions of this area and specialty.

Direction characteristics

"Ecology and Environmental Management" is a specialty that prepares students in three areas. Namely: geoecology, environmental management, ecology. The principle of all areas is related, and specialists can work in the future under the same conditions. As it became clear from the preface, the profession is really relevant. And, most importantly, there are not very many specialists in it at the moment. This creates the opportunity for more extensive career exploration and career growth, provided that the matter will really be of interest to the student, and in the future to the graduate and potential employee. However, you will have to work not only in a cozy office chair. “Ecology and environmental management” is a specialty that involves working in the field, frequent trips to take measurements and take samples for analysis. In any case, this will be the case at the beginning of your career.

What students study

The Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources Management of the Moscow Region needs specialists who can do their job efficiently. It offers many internships, internships and even vacancies for future graduates of higher education institutions. But in order to get there, you need to know the relevant subjects perfectly. And, of course, it is important to be able to apply knowledge in practice.

The Committee on Ecology and Natural Resources Management has identified the most important skills of specialists in this industry. These include: knowledge of the biological diversity of species in the controlled area, their requirements for living conditions; ability to analyze and interpret the results of environmental research; prediction in connection with certain man-made actions; knowledge of environmental economics; understanding of the principles of environmental monitoring; the ability to rationally organize the extraction and use of organic and natural resources.

Required skills and knowledge

The Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Moscow Region involves the work of experts in exact science. This is not a humanities major in most cases. The student and specialist will have to make many global calculations. Each such specialist in a group of workers will be assigned great responsibility for the results of their analyses, systematics and verdict. The direction “Ecology and environmental management” is positioned by universities as a research field. This means that the applicant must be aware of the need for the ability to use numbers and formulas, and also, quite possibly, to develop new methods of calculations, analysis, monitoring and other methods of research and action to protect the environment. Not all people have the ability to bear great responsibility, nor do they have the desire for calculations, especially such complex and large-scale ones.

Prospects of the direction

Everything in this world is currently “sick” of environmental friendliness. Eco-friendly food, environmentally friendly production of clothing and household items, environmentally friendly mining and production of minerals. In almost all spheres of society, ecology has taken first place in importance. Few people alive today do not realize the importance of preserving the environment in its original, pure form. And since this purity is, in fact, no longer left, we must try with all our might to return it. In any case, the next few decades, both commercial organizations and government projects will not force graduates of the specialty “Ecology and Environmental Management” to ask the question: “Who should I work with?”

Career ladder

Learning means being able to move forward rather than stay in one place. And any self-respecting person will not work all his life without any advancement. Be it salary, professional responsibilities, range of functions, and so on. Life is motion. So, ecologists are one of the few specialists who actually have a clearly structured hierarchy of career ladders and the opportunity to advance along it. Starting with various research groups, communities and laboratories, continue to work in large concerns, leading global industries. There is a pleasant opportunity for environmentalists to occupy high-ranking positions in the government apparatus. It is society’s view of the pressing problem that will help move in the right direction.

"Ecology and environmental management": who to work with

Nowadays, people go to study not according to the call of their hearts, but according to the market situation and the demand for specialists. Therefore, the list of vacancies that you can apply for after graduation is always interesting. This is where the question arises: “I graduated with a degree in Ecology and Environmental Management. Where can I go to work?” A burning question for many who are interested in this area.

So, having received the specialty "Ecology and Environmental Management", what kind of work can you do? These are: agroecologist, bioecologist, geoecologist, hydroecologist, ecologist, ecologist-auditor, ecologist-inspector, ecologist-nature user, and, of course, the most obvious, teacher of the completed disciplines. An agroecologist studies and protects the rational use of water and air, and implements a set of measures to protect them from pollution. His responsibilities also include the study and protection of plants and animals in agriculture from various viruses, fungi and diseases.

Bioecologists carry out their activities mainly in laboratories and research centers. Their task is to study the components of the ecosystem and develop measures to maintain their balance.

Geoecologists accompany all construction work. Any construction project must have an opinion from this specialist. Firstly, he must determine how damaging the construction of a new facility will be for nature, and secondly, how the environment will react, what cataclysms and accidents may occur.

The profession of a hydroecologist is associated with reservoirs, rivers, lakes, groundwater, their biological component and the degree of safety in terms of pollution. Development of treatment facilities, regulatory documentation on the use of water resources, reports on work done - this is what this specialist will have to do.

An ecologist and an environmental engineer are required in all plants and factories, as well as in organizations involved in the mining industry. All actions of market participants must comply with environmental regulations and not exceed acceptable levels of pollution and safety. An ecologist should monitor all this.

Auditors and inspectors in the field of ecology work in inspection bodies, various sanitary and epidemiological stations, state control services, and statistical authorities. Their duty is to verify compliance with regulations and impose sanctions on entities that violate standards.

Prestige and demand for the profession

What is a prestigious job in our society? It is unlikely that this includes a sales consultant and a staff accountant. There are too many of these specialists on the market now. But researchers, designers, auditors are another matter. But ecologists, in essence, can be all of the above. The work of an ecologist requires extensive knowledge and skills, which already eliminates a large audience when entering this specialty. An extraordinary mind and the ability to see what others do not see is what makes prestige. And most importantly, they pay a good salary for it. The small number of ecologists makes them the most sought-after specialists in the world, where they are urgently needed at the moment. This means that finding a job as a professional will be much faster and easier.

The essence of the work

Depending on the place where the specialist will work, and on the activities of the employer, his responsibilities will be as follows: conducting environmental assessments and monitoring, creating and maintaining an environmental database, forming an enterprise policy regarding environmental behavior, preparing programs and action plans for environmental protection environment, making proposals to legislative bodies, drawing up reports on the environment, implementing regulatory plans, calculating the noise level in a designated area and in premises, implementing and maintaining an internal management system in the area. Especially such specialists are needed at manufacturing enterprises to monitor compliance with environmental standards. Specialists without work experience can start working in various laboratories, research centers, and expert groups.

Salary expectations

The most important and interesting part of the article for many readers is how much the work of such a specialist costs. Is it worth studying in this direction? So, an environmental engineer will receive around 50,000 rubles per month, an environmentalist project developer will receive up to 70,000 rubles per month, an environmental engineer will be able to increase his budget every month by 100,000. In most vacancies, the salary parameter is “at agreements,” which means that your price as a specialist will be told to you after the interview.

Ecologist (environmental engineer) is a specialist who analyzes the situation and develops measures to reduce existing and possible harm to nature.

Ecologist (environmental engineer) - a specialist involved in analyzing the situation and developing measures to reduce existing and possible harm to nature. An ecologist identifies the causes of natural disasters and develops ways to reduce the impact of human factors on the environment. The profession is suitable for those who are interested in physics, chemistry, biology and geography (see choosing a profession based on interest in school subjects).

In the future, problems of environmental conservation will occupy an increasingly important place. Due to the increasing emission of harmful elements into the atmosphere, environmental problems are being placed at one of the top places. The demand for professional ecologists will increase, but the requirements for them will also increase. The profession of an ecologist will become one of the most popular and important.

Ecologists are trying to understand and explain, for example, why lakes dry up or their inhabitants die. They study the state of the earth, water, air, as well as the degree of impact of industrial production on people, plants, and animals. Ecologists identify the degree of pollution, analyze the causes and make a forecast of the situation in the future. Environmental specialists study the consequences of certain events affecting the environment (for example, rocket launches), monitor the proper disposal of various wastes, and monitor hazardous industries.

Environmental engineers are faced with the development and approval by government environmental authorities of documents that justify the environmental safety of various projects and industrial production. Specialists in laboratories conduct research on the content of specific and basic pollutants in the air of cities.

At the moment, qualified ecologists are needed to conduct examinations when starting the construction of any residential buildings, factories, or transport road facilities. Without a positive conclusion, none of the construction projects will begin. Moreover, each enterprise must conduct its activities under the close supervision of environmental engineers.

Studying the fundamentals of environmental management is especially important in connection with Russia's accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO). The World Trade Organization (WTO) plans to adopt and implement ISO international standards in countries that have joined the WTO, providing a unified global system of requirements for quality management of services and goods. One of the most important world standards is ISO 14000. The subject of this standard is an environmental management system (EMS), the use of which makes it possible to effectively combine the economic growth of a company's income with the preservation of a favorable environment. Knowledge of ISO series standards and their implementation in organizations are mandatory requirements for future ecologists.
