In connection with the faster and faster global warming process and the related necessity to implement the principles of sustainable development into economic processes, an additional subject related to sustainable pro-ecological development should be introduced into schools and universities. In my opinion, many schools and universities lack the issue of sustainable pro-ecological development in curricula and study programs as a separate subject. In such a situation, a subject should be included in the curricula and study programs, which would concern the issue of sustainable pro-ecological development. In addition, the education processes should be improved and adapted to the specificity of the problem of sustainable pro-ecological development.

Pupils and students should be aware that many enterprises in commercial sectors are not interested in implementing sustainable development principles due to the additional costs they would have to incur. Without state support, without an appropriate economic policy that takes into account the principles of sustainable development, without normative regulations that would force commercial enterprises to implement the principles of sustainable development, the process of developing pro-ecological reforms will be slow and slow.

Ecological reforms should be implemented more quickly and with greater finns involvement, including with greater financial involvement from public finances of the state. This is necessary because the global warming process is progressing faster, humanity has at its disposal less and less time to implement the necessary pro-ecological reforms, primarily limiting greenhouse gas emissions, improving waste segregation and recycling, developing energy based on renewable energy sources, replacing plastic with biodegradable materials, development of electromobility, protection of biodiversity of natural natural ecosystems, etc.

Due to the fact that many enterprises in commercial sectors are not interested in implementing the principles of sustainable development, the role of schools and universities as well as other scientific centers is crucial in this regard. Schools and universities should be promoters of the necessity to implement the principles of sustainable development. Teachers and scientists should promote the introduction of necessary pro-ecological reforms that will enable the implementation of sustainable host development based on the green economy concept in the economies of individual countries. This is one of the most important global problems of the 21st century.
