Popularization of the Earth Sciences
The TUTKOVSKY considers a popularisation of problems related to nature management as an important direction of work among youth and the great masses of population.
A lot of place on the pages of the Geologist of Ukraine magazine were occupied by popular scientific materials concerning geological monuments of Ukraine, stone products, unique historical constructions, medicinal properties of minerals. Young readers could not but be interested in the stories of famous scientists about travel to different countries of the world. Important importance was also attached to the placement of information materials on school geological Olympiads, excursions, contests.
A true gift to future geologists of Ukraine was the publication of the popular science book by Rostyslav Furdui «Brother of the sun and wind», issued on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Nadra Group of companies.
Annually mineralogical calendars are published that promote the popularization of geology and nature management.
