Environmental sustainability has become an inevitable condition for the protection of global environment. It was in the late 1960’s; the nations all over the world realized the need for protecting the environment. Environmental protection developed in its current form, as a result of the intensive pollution and the resulted awareness among the public especially in the Western countries. The first global initiative for environmental protection was held in Stockholm, Sweden in 1972. The United Nations Conference on the Environment in Stockholm (1972) highlighted the environmental problems and need for protecting our mother nature. The nations adopted several principles for the proper management of the environment including the Action Plan for the Human Environment and Stockholm Declaration.
