Article from Volume 11, Number 3, Year 2023| THE ENVIRONMENT - BETWEEN PROTECTION AND DECISION | 
Download | | Author(s): Gabriela - Liliana Cioban | | DOI: 10.4316/EJAFB.2023.11311 | | Abstract: The environment and its quality are complementary elements of life on Earth. This axiom leads us to evaluate the elements that construct the concept of environmental quality. It is an important theme both in terms of content and in terms of effects it has from a medical, socio-economic, cultural, and demographic point of view. We analyze the environment through synthetic indicators that highlight its positive and negative aspects. In this context, we consider the assessment of the environment in terms of human needs and anthropogenic impact on the environment. The Environmental Performance Index (EPI) allows us to obtain information that highlights the health of the environment, protects ecosystem vitality, and mitigates climate change. It records results for 180 countries and provides practical guidance for countries aspiring to move towards a sustainable future. We underline that EU policy is in line with the European Green Pact's goal of achieving a zero-pollution, competitive, and climate-neutral economy by 2050. | | Keywords: Air Quality; Biodiversity; Environmental Health; Environmental Policies; Pollution. | References:
