Legal education in the mechanism of environmental culture formation

The current state of environmental and legal culture of society is poor, and this is due to the low efficiency of environmental law. The concept of "eco-legal culture" in the Russian legal science is not developed enough and it causes some difficulties. This constituent element of legal culture is often confused with environmental culture. The main feature of ecological and legal culture is that it is formed only on the basis of environmental law, and not on the whole amount of environment knowledge at large and it is a narrower concept than environmental culture. This is due to the importance of understanding the difference between these two concepts. This eco-legal component should be implemented as widely as possible to all the possible components of the education system.
