Abstract
Sustainable development has become a political objective of the European Union since 1997 through its inclusion in the Maastricht Treaty. In 2001, the Gothenburg European
Council adopted the Sustainable Development Strategy of the European Union, which had an external dimension in Barcelona in 2002. In 2005, the European Commission, the publication in February, launched a review process of the strategy, a critical assessment of progress since 2001,
which points several courses of action. It revealed some unsustainable tendencies, with negative effects on the environment, which could affect the future development of the European Union, namely climate change, threats to public health, poverty and the social exclusion, exhaustion of
natural resources and erosion of biodiversity. After identifying these problems, in June 2005, Heads of State and Government of the European Union countries adopted a Declaration on the guiding principles of sustainable development. After long negotiations, the European
Commission presented on 13 December 2005, a proposed revision of the Gothenburg strategy of 2001.
