Most modern constitutions contain provisions on the protection of the environment, so the Constitution of the Republic of Srpska in its Article 35 proclaims that man has the right to a healthy environment, and that everyone, in accordance with the law, is obliged to protect and improve it within his capabilities. Actors in the realization of this right are both public authorities and all citizens, all with the aim of ensuring the healthiest living conditions and constant improvement of its quality. In this sense, we are all equally responsible for the quality of the environment in which we live, and therefore we must be equally aware of the consequences of our activities that are reflected on the environment, and persevere in our efforts to minimize our negative actions in terms of environmental pollution as much as possible. That is why there is a need for greater engagement of the public authorities, raising the environmental awareness of citizens, as well as the allocation of larger budget funds for this purpose, in order to avoid the emergence of environmental problems. In this way, we will ensure and enable a dignified life and health, both for the present and future generations.
