But it was enough for the mankind to propel into the XX century, to make amazing discoveries, and to bring the new technologies into everyday life of almost every person, boosting the intellectual possibilities. 20 years is the time past since the first technogenic catastrophe that struck the world at the beginning of the information epoch. For the first time the problem of human and nature coexistence was seen as a simple, yet unsolvable paradigm – to be or not to be. 20 years past Chernobyl, the mankind continues to reproduce social problems, keeps destroying its environment without seeing the real Chernobyl has not yet started. It is ahead.
