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, improves 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. |
