Abstract
The article is aimed at researching the current
problem of socioecology – the causes and consequences of
possible resource depletion, as well as establishing the
possibility of its averting. There are two classifications of
natural resources from the point of view of ecology: according
to their renewability and according to the possibility of use.
Based on the concept of the Rouche limit, the law of the
resource balance of society is formulated, which relates the
social productivity of labor to the population density and the
depletion of available natural resources. This law is another
form of recording the balance of social production and
consumption of resources. The consequences of its violation are
shown.The effect of abiotic, biotic and anthropogenic factors on
the rate of depletion of available natural resources is studied,
and the decisive role of scientific and technological progress in
the development of the resource base of society is shown. It was
determined that scientific and technological progress is a
decisive factor in averting a resource catastrophe by humanity
and individual nations. The conducted study of the social
structure allows us to draw a conclusion about the decisive role
of industrial relations in the implementation of new scientific
and technical solutions in production.
