Summary/Abstract: Sustainable development is in the same time the condition and purpose of life quality, and the expression of a level of consciousness of the need for setting-up equity in and between generations. Romania, although it did remain behind, compared to the majority of the EU nations, in the charts that show sustainable development, gets more aware of its situation and more preoccupied with this problem. The road that Romania took, voluntarily or because of the duty it assumed as a member of EU, is difficult due to the nature of priorities that Romanians have, the conceptions inherited which are difficult to change, as well as the unstable and precarious culture concerning sustainability. These conclusions derive from studies that were conducted on European, national and local scale.
