The problem is relevant because of the need to develop the English-speaking communicative competence of the Kazakhstani people as a component of the compulsory trilingualism in Kazakhstan. Currently, in the context of an active unaided entry of Kazakhstan into the global community, there is an acute challenge of increasing the number of people who speak English. In order to master the English language for practical purposes, it is important to identify common global problems for the whole society. This can be the ecological state of Kazakhstan. This topic will be one of the key bases for the development of the English language competences of Kazakhstani people, when two important aspects are integrated: expanding the functioning of the English language in the country and the need to understand the growing environmental threat to life on the Earth. People in all regions should be actively involved in the environmental movement, as environmental problems arise because of indifference to violations of environmental standards at different levels (from household to production), due to their direct non-compliance at the local level and inactivity of society in solving environmental problems. The purpose of the article is to show the real possibilities of integrating the development process of students' foreign language and the process of identifying ways to solve environmental problems of the region as immediate tasks that they solve as volunteers. The method for the study of this problem is cognitive-communicative, which allows, first of all, determining the cognitive structure of a text with an ecological theme and on this basis to subjectify obtained information in the minds of students through their environmental speech intentions. The article reveals effective ways of selecting educational material for the formation of English communicative competence based on environmental material. The mechanisms for selecting educational material and the planning methodology for the thematic lesson cycle can be useful for planning the cognitivecommunicative learning process based on environmental regional problems for any educational audience and are intended for foreign language specialists and environmental teachers.

Chemical processes form the basis for the existence of all living and inanimate matter. Moreover, the basis for the development of the material world and the determination of the objects’ and materials’ features belongs to the subject area of chemical processing. In this regard, the use of natural resources becomes an urgent problem in order to determine the possibility of its maximum conservation with more intensive use of it. For students of the Faculty of Chemistry, this is especially important since it is they who implement the processes of chemical production that cause the most significant harm to the ecological environment. In addition, the main task of ecologization is to minimize the damage received. Maintaining balance in this regard is the relevance of the research. The novelty of the research is determined by the fact that for the first time environmental competence is considered as a process of future professional support of work in the chemical industry. In the process of research, it was used the longitudinal method, which included a parallel experiment, in which participated the control and the experimental groups. The authors assume that environmental competence should be determined at the beginning of the work of each professional and influence them by applying specialized knowledge. The article reveals the methodological and essential characteristics of applying environmental competence in the professional training of senior students. The use of the proposed approach will allow the regional authorities to exercise operative control and model the scenarios for the development of the processes of ecologization of the territory due to the ecologization of education, taking into account the external environment changes.

Relevance of the article is based on the importance of environmental education and development of the "green" economics of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Despite the relevancy of environmental education, there is a lack of studies on the relationship between the greening of education, "green economy" and the modernization of students ' consciousness. Thus, there is a gap between the demands of the state and the environmentally oriented training of future specialists.
