| Summary: | In the international climate of the early millennium, the need for
reconciliation between economic and social development, on one hand, and
the environment, on the other hand, is essential. Therefore, sustainable development
must be promoted, because it integrates economic growth, improved
quality of life, health, education, social development and environmental protection.
Environmental issues are particularly complex as their causes are interdependent.
This requires actions at all levels: local, national, regional as well
as at the European Union level, each with its own role in increasing responsibility
for the environmental protection.
It is widely recognized that to obtain successful results an integrated approach
has to be used to manage the environment, by adopting long-term
strategies and action plans. It requires a detailed analysis of the links between
different policies and responsibilities, including the links between different
administrative levels. |
