Abstract
Abstract. Protecting the environment is an objective that should be of interest to all states, all international bodies, and all citizens, since pollution and its consequences, the ever more pressing climate changes, are problems that can only be solved with actions taken by all the parties involved. This situation requires a more responsible approach towards the actions related to climate change, which makes it necessary to adopt new policies and legal strategies in the field of environmental protection, at a national, European, and international level. An important role is played by the environmental policy, as a form of directing and organising the complex activity of environmental protection, needed to set in place the strategies, methods, and means used in the actions performed nationally and internationally in order to improve the environmental conditions. At present, the complex and global nature of climate change requires an extended and consistent action for cooperation between the states and the international organisations, with the purpose to adopt a rigorous and effective legislation, which would constitute a modern, harmonized, and efficient legal framework, including measures designed, first of all, to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
