Description
Summary:Nature and landscape protection has gained importance over the past 50 years from the economic, cultural, health, and recreational point of view. The process is closely linked to our civilizational endeavours (such as economic interests, pollution, urbanization, super-intensive agriculture, etc.) that threaten our natural values as well as to the ever more frequent environmental disasters resulting from the above. The continued destruction of our natural and landscape values is not reversible. The aim of this article is to determine the important and urgent professional tasks regarding exploring, documenting, safeguarding, and raising awareness of values. My work wishes to draw attention to the landscape values and deficiencies of Transylvania, working with examples from other countries; by using Romanian examples, I also wish to support my assumption according to which if we want to preserve unique landscapes on the European level we need to act quickly.
