Popis: Relevance. Understanding the need to «reset» human relations with the natural world as a result of the global environmental crisis has caused the idea of environmentalism to become actual in modern humanitarian thought. Objective of the research is analysis of the philosophical foundation of the idea of environmentalism, as well as personalistic ecology as its variety. Methods: analysis and generalization of scientific literature, problem-focused comparison of theoretical concepts. Results. The study showed that the ideological foundation of ecologism is deep ecology as a project of the Norwegian philosopher and ecologist Arne Ness to transform society through a change in individual worldview. Spiritual, personalistic and transpersonal ecology can be considered as peculiar varieties of ecologism. Conclusions. Environmentalism is focused on solving global environmental problems through the internal, spiritual efforts of each person to change the basic principles of the modern industrial-information society and develop an internal need for a careful and respectful attitude towards the world.
