Abstract
The Czech Republic is a country with a transforming economy. A specific feature affecting the public attitude about environmental protection is the neighbourhood of developed countries. The paper is based on my personal view on the history and perspectives of environmental protection in the Czech Republic. The role that the chemical and chemical engineering community in the Czech Republic should play in improving environmental protection is discussed.
