Summary/Abstract: The values related to sustainable development are rooted in fundamental threats which are connected with a human being. The imbalance of development of modern civilization entails a threat to the humanity. Concern for the environment which is not taking into account the aspirations and social strivings may become a source of conflicts and tensions that could destabilize the political situation. The article draws attention to the relationship of man with nature from an early age. The formation of values in relation to the surrounding nature and the nearest child’s environment may contribute to the sustainable development.
