Summary
The problem of “sustainable development” is one of the most urgent problems in the world. There exists the demand for reasonable combination of profit maximization interests, material welfare and environmental requirements This problem is touched upon in many international legal acts such as Stockholm Declaration of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment (1972), Rio Declaration on Environment and Development (1992), “Agenda 21” (1992), Johannesburg Declaration on Sustainable Development (2002), UNEP Report “Towards “Green” Economies: a Way to Sustainable Development and Elimination of Poverty” (UNEP, 2011) and others. “Agenda 21” contains an appeal to the U.N.O member-countries for development, adoption and further guaranteeing of coordination of national strategies in sustainable development The foundation for these strategies should become “different sector economic, social and environmental programs and plans realized in the country” (Agenda XXI: Adopted by UNO Conference on Environment and Development, 1992).
