It is shown that during the last fifty years the activities of Scientific Council moved from organization of «nature protection school work» to development of theory and methods of teaching ecology as a biological discipline and then to the theory of integrated environmental education as the basis of formation of environmental education for sustainable development. The results of researches by members of Scientific Council on problems of theory and practice of general environmental education and ways of overcoming them are described. Relevance of development of philosophical, psychological, linguocultural bases for realization of outlook, integrating, culturological and culture-creative mission of modern environmental education is proved. It is concluded that the main vector of the Scientific Council activity on the development of environmental education till 2030 must be the humanitarization of its content: giving it a general cultural orientation by including in its content the multicultural experience of interaction with nature, values and traditions of nature-appropriate activities, environmental ethics; expanding the subject of knowledge in the natural-science, social and humanitarian field as a condition for understanding the environmental imperative and goals of sustainable development; orientation to the culturally appropriate education. The means and conditions of humanitarization of ecological education are considered. It is concluded that the results of the Scientific Council are of theoretical and practical importance for solving strategic problems of sustainable development of the country and the provision of ecological safety of its citizens.
