Abstract

The paper refers to the environmental dimension of sustainable development in the European Union, emphasized by the Europe 2020 Strategy, presenting the dynamics of greenhouse gas emissions between 1990-2011 in the European Union and in Romania, and also the forecasting until 2015. The modern analysis of decoupling between two indicators: GDP and the greenhouse gas emissions was used for showing the way of these relative changes during 2005-2011 in the EU countries.
