The first joint environmental
campaign "Look around you and move!” designed by the Ministry of
European Integration and the Delegation of the European Union in the Republic
of Serbia, with the Ministry of the Environment, has achieved its goal!
The results after the campaign show that citizens understood the importance of environmental protection and the importance of this topic. Also, the European Union is recognized as the most important partner of Serbia in the field of ecology.
To protect the environment in
Serbia, the EU has donated 402 million euros in the last 19 years. Most of the
money was invested in the construction of waste water treatment plants,
regional landfills, construction and renewal of water supply systems, air
protection systems and medical waste management systems.
The figure is impressive, but
more importantly, all of these investments were intended to give Serbian
citizens a better quality of life: cleaner drinking water, cleaner soil and
cleaner air to breathe.
More detailed information on the campaign
results can be found here.
The current situation regarding
air pollution in Serbia has led us to once again warn citizens that nature is
fragile and that we must take this into account, for our sake and for the sake
of future generations.
