SOME ISSUES OF NATURAL RESOURCES USE IN POST-COMMUNIST COUNTRIES

Summary 

Life history is closely linked to soil history. Because land is an indispensable, immovable, and inexhaustible resource everything comes from him and everything goes back to him. The contradiction between population growth and food security is especially evident when it comes to the use of land resources, with an annual turnover of 7-8 million hectares of arable land. Soil erosion is a global problem. The only alternative to conservation of land resources is its conservation, as well as the transition to natural methods of land cultivation to preserve for future generations vital intergenerational resources such as land. Natural resources are shrinked as "shagreen skins" and if humanity does not take this fundamental problem wisely, future generations will surely face an ecological apocalypse.
