The doctrine of the biosphere and the noosphere was formed as a result of what was done by V. I

2.3 Noosphere - the sphere of reason
The name of the noosphere comes from the Greek "noos" - the mind and thus signifies the sphere of the mind. However, the concept of the noosphere is currently not unambiguous.
IN AND. Vernadsky, developing the doctrine of the biosphere, gave the concept of the noosphere a deeply scientific content that should be taken into account in the process of restructuring the environment and society. In this regard, the noosphere should be considered as the highest stage of development of the biosphere, linked by the development of human society in it, which, knowing the laws of nature and development and developing technology to the highest level of its capabilities, becomes a large planetary force, exceeding in scale all known geological processes together taken. At the same time, humanity has a decisive influence on the course of all processes in the biosphere, profoundly changing it with its own work. The scientific and practical importance of the activities of V.I. Vernadsky, the founder of the biosphere theory, is that for the first time in the full armor of knowledge, he deeply grounded the unity of man and the biosphere.Living matter itself as a carrier of the mind is a small part of the biosphere by weight. The emergence of man and human society was the result of living matter within the biosphere.
Assessing the role of the human mind and scientific thought as a planetary phenomenon, V.I. Vernadsky came to the following conclusions:
1. “The course of scientific creativity is the force by which a person changes the biosphere in which he lives.
2. This manifestation of a change in the biosphere is an inevitable phenomenon accompanying the growth of scientific thought.
3. This change in the biosphere occurs independently of human will, spontaneously, as a natural, natural process.
4. And since the environment of life is an organized shell of the planet - the biosphere, the entry in the course of its geologically long existence of a new factor of its change - the scientific work of humanity - is a natural process of transition of the biosphere into a new phase, into a new state - into the noosphere.
5. At the historical moment we are experiencing, we see this more clearly than we could have seen before. Here the law of nature is revealed before us. New sciences - geochemistry and biochemistry - provide an opportunity to express some important features of the process mathematically.
After the works of V.I. Vernadsky has accumulated enormous material on the biosphere, on the production activities of human society. In connection with the development of production forces, new in quality cycles of matter in the biosphere emerge along the path of its transformation into the noosphere. Their main features are as follows.
1. The increase in the mechanically recoverable material of the earth's crust - the growth of the development of mineral deposits.
2. Mass consumption (burning) of photosynthesis products of past geological epochs occurs.
3. The processes in the anthropogenic biosphere lead to the dissipation of energy, and not to its accumulation, which was typical of the biosphere before man appeared.
4. In the biosphere, mass amounts of substances are created that were previously absent in it, including pure metals.
5. Transuranic chemical elements (plutonium, etc.) appear, albeit in minute quantities, in connection with the development of nuclear technology and nuclear power. Nuclear energy is being developed through the division of heavy nuclei.
6. The noosphere transcends the Earth due to the progress of the scientific and technological revolution.
In connection with the consumer attitude towards natural resources and the accumulation of production wastes, the anthropogenic load on the biosphere is rapidly increasing and brings the biosphere closer to a critical state. Naturally, the problem of limiting anthropogenic influences arises, which today is becoming extremely important. This is realized by the scientific community and many political figures.
Due to the increasing anthropogenic load on the biosphere, numerous problems arise that will have to be solved in the near future in order to avoid fatal consequences. This is an extremely important task, the solution of which will require great efforts on the part of the human mind, attracting scientists in the field of natural and human sciences.
