The constitution of Republic of Croatia determinate the right for healthy life and environment as interest of Republic of Croatia. The obligation of all subjects is to take care of nature and environment protection. We humans with our actions have already started to affect and endanger the environment in which we are emitting all kinds of different gasses which result in changing the natural chemistry of atmosphere. Through actions of people we can see the pollution of underground waters and in some regions a shortage of drinkable water. The pollution and destruction of soil are causing disturbance in hydrology system which means that negative effects in one part of the land can be felt in surrounding nature as well. Men and industry are not only polluting environment with toxic chemical matter but also with disposing huge amounts of bulky waste. But waste can also be useful because it can be recycled in to valuable resources. Modern human civilization is facing disposing waste problem which have become more bigger and even more difficult to solve. But in today's time the consciousness of people is changing more towards recycling about which I will talk more later.
