Abstract
During the last 20 years, the idea of sustainable development acquired official approval and political sense. One of the issues that is frequently discussed is the problem of global warming. This problem introduces contradictory opinions that appear cyclically. One side of the debate accuses human population, and especially the use of fossil fuels for the effects of global warming, whereas the other side claims no anthropological influence, and the only reason finds in the actions of Nature. It is not probable to achieve compromising solution in the short time. It seems, however, that if there is an even slight suspicion that some effects that might be dangerous to humanity is possibly caused by human activity—it is reasonable to mitigate the effects of that activity.
