Abstract

This article is of a theoretical nature and concerns social movements working for environmental protection, described here from a sociological perspective. Environmental movements are gaining popularity, and their division and types are presented using two classifications proposed by: 1) the sociologist M. Castells and 2) the socio-environmental organization Earth5R.
The choice of the topic was dictated by the fact that, in the face of the deteriorating state of the world’s environment, environmental movements contribute to the development of environmental awareness among other members of society.
Their message reaches a wide audience.

Keywords:
