Environmental Impact Assessment and Application — Part 1
Original language description
During last few centuries the environment has been impacted by anthropogenic activities with increasing speed. The impact has caused loss of natural character and function of many components of the environment. The tendency of changing natural systems is obvious all around the world and the pressure is exponentially increasing with growing human population. The impact on a natural ecosystem is demonstrated by the ecosystem degradation and decreasing ability to recover. At present, numbers of ecosystems are so heavily affected that they are not able, without human action, to be recovered and to accomplish natural function. The negative impact of human activities on the environment slows down during last few decades due to accepted legislative measures and the degradation of the environment has been minimized. One of the main legislative tools to minimize the anthropogenic impact on the environment is environmental impact assessment (EIA) (in some sources “environmental impact analyses”).
