The paper analyses the concept of sustainable development that has determined the society to recognize and become aware of the importance of environmental factors as well as of the functions and services that the environment offers. Sustainable development has as its goal the improvement of the negative effects of environmental pollution having in regard the need to satisfy present generation needs while ensuring the liveliness of the environmental factors for future generations. The integration of the issue of the environment within the European Community policy is the main modality for ensuring sustainable development. In this paper, we want to prove that sustainable development must be considered in the determination of the line of action both at national level as well as at the level of the entire European process. Regarding the functions and the importance of forests, the problem of sustainable development in this matter represent a priority and this is why both the Romanian and the European legislator have adopted specific legal provisions in this area.
