Sustainable development - Austria versus the Czech Republic: Difference between revisions

We really appreciate the attitude of Gessäuse natural park towards its visitors. They focus not only on preserving nature and scientific research but also on informing people and educating children – both in an interesting and amusing way. This could be a good inspiration for Czech protected areas.

===  Conclusions===  

We think it is possible to observe a tendency to support sustainable development also in the Czech Republic, but we still have a lot of to learn and to improve. People should be more informed about the „history“ of the products and energy sources they use and it is important to include sustainable development overview to more fields of study at universities. It is also important to consider factors like natural and social conditions or infrastructure because these create bases for further development. Furthermore, supporting of governemnt and public, good ideas and scientific attitude are necessary to realize the ideas. It is also important to avoid missusing of the coming „ecological“ trends by people who want only a financial profit and miss real interest and motivation. To sum up, sustainable development requieres a complex attitude and cooperation of specialists from different areas and also public, because everybody can make some – at least a little - contribution.
