"The only way to predict the future is to build it" (Peter Druker, 2009). The human right to a healthy environment, given its importance, has proven to be the fastest evolving of its generation, in terms of its guarantee and effectiveness on the path of justice. The emergence of global ecological problems (greenhouse effect, climate change, depletion of the ozone layer, etc.) contributed to the consolidation of its status as a fundamental right and the right to survival of mankind (Duţu, 2008, p. 338). The recognition and guarantee by law of the right to a healthy environment amplifies the obligations of public authorities to protect the environment, offers the courts new means for repairing ecological damage and sanctioning the damage caused to the environment and allows a better harmonization between different levels of recognition and guarantee of the fundamental right to a healthy environment.
