The paper substantiates the idea of the need to include environmental ideology in the structure of environmental policy and political knowledge in general. Based on the study of the informational and ideological impact on the mechanisms for the implementation of environmental and political activities, it is established that ideology and the mass media act as a tool of informational and psychological impact on the consciousness and environmental orientations of the individual. In conclusion, the author concludes that the information-ideological mechanism for the implementation of environmental policy in modern conditions is not only a factor in legitimizing the current environmental policy, but also acts as a potential with which to control public consciousness and form value orientations and norms.
