PROTECȚIA JURIDICĂ A FONDULUI FORESTIER – ANALIZĂ LEGISLATIVĂ ȘI SOLUȚII
LEGAL PROTECTION OF FOREST RESOURCES – LEGISLATIVE ANALYSIS AND SOLUTIONS

Summary/Abstract: In the current context, marked by global warming, the European Union is engaged in a determined effort to preserve the balance between humans and nature by means of legal instruments that impose clear restrictions on the use of both renewable and non-renewable natural resources. This study aims to emphasize the legal mechanisms for the protection of forest resources — including both civil and criminal law measures — designed to combat intensive logging, based on the rules and principles set out in the Forest Code. Special attention is given to the precautionary principle in decision-making and the “polluter pays” principle. Through EU legal instruments developed on this foundation, the European Union seeks to prevent deforestation and exploitation in areas where ecological balance, biodiversity, and the regenerative capacity of forests may be adversely affected. The regulations adopted at national and EU level concerning the legal protection of forest resources will be examined in correlation with pragmatic solutions proposed to halt large-scale deforestation and to ensure an optimal framework for forest regeneration.
