Based on the awareness of personal and collective responsibility for saving nature and humanity from destruction, a mass environmental movement has emerged as a sprout of high morality and collective consciousness. It is this movement that has compelled international environmental organizations to speak about the necessity of ecopolitics and adhere to such principles:
- respectful attitude towards nature and care for its preservation;
- preservation of animal and plant life;
- improving quality of life;
- minimal consumption of non-renewable resources;
- human activity within the capacity of nature to endure its impact without harm;
- enhancement of activities concerning the environment.
