Sažetak
Innovative and responsible community actions are crucial for achieving environmental security. Continuous environmental pollution, as well as the uncontrolled and/or excessive exhaustion of natural resources, and their associated risks to human health and the environment, are the great challenges for modern societies. Consequently, effective strategies and measures to control and reduce environmental pollution and promote the preservation of natural resources and ecosystems are of paramount concern when developing, and synonymous with, the achievement of sustainable development goals. Achievement of these goals will to a large extent depend on changing the behavior of individuals, as well as whole societies. With increasing levels of personal and social responsibility and knowledge, research, development and application of innovative technology are critical circumstances/tools and at the same time driving forces relevant to significantly contribute to achieving environmental security.
