Abstract

By elaborating this article, the authors wanted to present the situation of expenses incurred performed for the protection of the environment from Romania. The authors try to underline the fact that they have improved in recent years, against the background of the increase of the available funds, due to the economic growth and implicitly the revenues from state budget. A priority under all aspects must be the protection of the environment and those ways of protecting the Earth's resources for the following generations. Environmental protection expenditures are actually the economic measure of the community's response to solving environmental problems. These expenses related to environmental protection are reduced, when environmental degradation is avoided, compared to the situation in which it needs to be repaired. In other words, in protecting the environment, not the treatment, but the prophylaxis must be certified as a basic rule. The measures to be taken for the protection of the environment, as a result of the exhaustion of natural resources, and the upward evolution of the amounts of waste are becoming more and more necessary. The methods used by the authors consisted in the study of the specialized literature, the collection of statistical data from various sources, the analysis, the graphic representation and the formulation of the main conclusions regarding the environmental protection expenses. The analysis of expenses for environmental protection is carried out on the main categories of producers: public administration, non-specialized producers, respectively specialized in the production of services related to environmental protection. In conclusion, the environment being considered a "factor of life", concerns must be directed to the protection of the environment, to the protection of natural beauties, to the prevention of abusive exploitation of nature.
