Local non-profit civic organization
Environmental protection is one of the most pressing problems of our time. It is this factor that has predetermined the participation of the vast majority of international organizations in solving environmental problems. Their number is constantly growing mainly due to the organizations specifically focused on environmental issues. Some of them are specially created to protect the environment, others perform, along with other functions, some functions on its protection.
An organization uses basic types of resources: people, capital, raw materials, materials, technology, and information. The achievement of desired results and environmental protection depend on the effective use of these resources.
Great Lake Sworm Watch is a local non-profit civic organization whose purpose is to promote the development of programs and activities to preserve and reproduce a livable natural environment, protect the health of American residents, conduct educational activities, protect citizens’ environmental rights, participate in activities to protect nature, rationally use natural resources, and implement environmental policies in America.
We are currently facing many challenges. Anthropogenic activities are diverse, and so are their effects on our environment. Here are the main goals that are being focused on today :
It is very difficult to achieve these goals by acting only at the local level. International cooperation is necessary because ecology knows no borders.
The protection of the environment and the protection of individual natural objects is carried out mainly on the basis of the same legal measures. Such measures are rationing and standardization, assessment of the impact of planned activities on the environment, environmental expertise, certification, licensing, economic incentives, planning, financing, insurance, auditing, monitoring, control and some others. It seems obvious that it would be reasonable to define in the legislation uniform requirements for the organization and carrying out of such measures in relation to the whole nature. It is also obvious that, if necessary, these measures can be regulated in the sectoral legislation in relation to interests and needs of use and protection of one or another natural object, taking into account its specifics.
Environmental protection is a system of relations established by the state between natural resource users, state regulatory and environmental control bodies, public organizations and the population living in a particular territory. Using various methods of regulation of these relations, it is possible to achieve reduction of emissions of chemically harmful substances into the environment.
