Environmental issues by their nature, character and implications prove to be a global problem. The environment and its protection increasingly require more coherent, flexible and competent management, a wide variety of intervention tools, and continuous communication with socio-economic actors in order to decrease to the minimum pollution phenomena and to use rationally planetary resources. Sustainable development reveals to us an economic and social development, which provides vital needs of the society by exploiting natural resources and human values and simultaneously preserving to the maximum the potential of the nation’s natural heritage. At present Moldova has the opportunity to rectify the poor ecological situation by taking measures to promote environmental training and education of the population, to implement effectively environmental management achievements, and finally, to reach the path of sustainable development within European space.
