Journal Title: EcoTerra (Journal of Environmental Research and Protection) - Year 2009, Vol 22, Issue 22
Abstract
The environment is the ensemble of conditions and natural elements of Earth: air, water, soil, subsoil, the characteristics of the landscape, all the organic and inorganic materials, as well as and the living being, natural systems in interaction, including the elements listed above,, including some material and spiritual values, quality of life and the conditions that may affect the human health and welfare. The environmental protection is achieved trough six types of activities, respectively: legislative, administrative institutional, educational-informational, economic and technological, social and of international cooperation. According to the analysis conducted by the EU experts, the priority problems of environment in Romania are: water pollution, mainly from industry but also from domestic sources, air pollution, nature protection and the conservation of the biodiversity (problems in restoring the ecological affected areas); issues wastes, ecological areas with hazard risk (identified 14 “hot spots” at the Romania level, severely affected), economic instability/ the policy considered as the main cause of the environmental problems. Under these conditions, the viability of the work is marked by the sustainable development strategy as a key element of the sustainable human development, trough a concern for nature as an inheritance and the reserve of the future generations, as well as the main expected befits.
