term "noosphere" was first proposed by a professor from the Sorbonne Edward Leroy, treat it as a "thinking" shell, which forms the mind and human activities.The noosphere - is literally translated "sphere of reason."Leroy said that this idea is the fruit of collaboration with his friend - the famous French philosopher Teilhard de Chardin.They relied in this case on the lectures on geochemistry, who read at the Sorbonne Vernadsky in 1922-23-ies.In their speeches, the Russian scientist examines the relationship of everything that is happening on our planet and in space.The concept of the noosphere Vernadsky carried a deep and comprehensive analysis of the evolution of the Earth as a result of a single cosmic, biogenic and anthropogenic processes.The noosphere - is sphere of interaction between nature and society, where intelligent human activity is starting to become a major determinant of development.The human mind, which manifests itself in scientific and technical accomplishments, is an important factor for further development of the planet Earth.The concept of the noosphere believes that the emergence and development of the individual is a logical, sequential step in the evolution of the biosphere.
Simultaneously with similar ideas expressed by VI Vernadsky, and other scientists.The appearance of similar ideas at the same time in different scientists is not accidental.Vernadsky believed that the emergence and development of life must be respected, at least three conditions: the existence of water, solar radiation and the phase boundary.The concept of "noosphere" includes the reasonable human activity, when it is gradually becoming the main, the dominant factor in development.
According to Vernadsky, the basic conditions for the emergence of the noosphere may be:
- dispersal of the world's population evenly over the surface of our planet and destruction of all kinds that are "competing with a man";
- fundamental improvement of means of communication, the creation of a unified information system and a control system for human beings;
- the emergence of a fundamentally different energy sources;
- equality of people in the world;
- the creation of the world united Marxist-Leninist state;
- involvement of "the masses" to the pursuit of science.
Vernadsky wrote that these social reforms will make the evolution of the transition from the biosphere to the noosphere irreversible.
noosphere - a new, higher stage of development of the biosphere, the evolution of which is associated with the formation of the social community of people who have significant influence on the processes occurring in nature.
Vernadsky wrote that humanity is in the process of maturation it becomes a powerful new "geological force" their thoughts and work transforms the face of the Earth.And so it is for the sake of itself must take full responsibility for the evolution of the biosphere, which is gradually transformed into the noosphere.This will require an unconditional human social organization and a new humanistic and ecological ethics.
Sometimes he spoke of the "noosphere" as that has already taken place and there is, in reality, sometimes - as a future that is inevitable.He wrote that the biosphere has repeatedly passed as a result of the evolution of a new state.This is what we are experiencing now, in the last few thousand years, when a person makes in the biosphere completely new geological force.The biosphere is gradually moving to a new state - the noosphere and processed scientific thought man.
value the ideas and work of VI Vernadsky as the author of the doctrine of the noosphere is that it is the first time scientifically proved the unity of man and the biosphere.Today's presentation of these ideas are: the noosphere - is a kind of shell of the planet Earth, which contains the totality of living organisms, including humans, and part of the substance of the planet, which is in constant exchange with them.
