In this article authors discuss the main ecological aspects of the urbanization process. In particular, such phenomena as anthropogenic transformation of the environment, which is the basis of all further transformations forming urban areas, are analyzed. In addition, the processes of anthropogenic change of organisms, for example, cultivation and domestication, are considered. Unfortunately, in modern science, the process of urbanization is usually considered from economic, social, and cultural positions, often without affecting the environmental component. This fact is a significant omission, especially in the context of an increase in the number of natural landscapes transformed by human.
