The Swedish Parliament has adopted 16 environmental quality objectives, describing what state and quality of the country’s environment are sustainable in the long term.
As an overall objective of environmental policy, a ‘generational goal’ has also been set. This defines the direction of policy in this area and is intended to guide environmental efforts at every level in society.
Milestone targets, finally, define steps along the way to the generational goal and the environmental quality objectives.
To attain these environmental objectives, everyone has a part to play – individuals, companies and authorities at every level.
