Climate policy trends focused on climate neutrality and the European Green Deal's strategies to create a sustainable European Union economy aim to create Europe as the first climateneutral continent by 2050. In order to achieve this goal, as well as a just and inclusive transition, emphasis is placed on the circular economy through a fundamental change of the entire economic model with as little impact on climate change as possible. The transformation of the economy in order to achieve climate neutrality is primarily based on mitigating the existing impact of the economy on climate change, and then on its adaptation for the purpose of further development. The European Union cannot achieve results on its own, given that climate change is a global crisis that requires a global response. A key concept for addressing the challenges posed by climate change is sustainable resource management. Sustainability requires the preservation of natural resources, the protection and restoration of biodiversity and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, which includes the promotion of the use of renewable energy sources, the application of measures to increase energy efficiency in order to reduce emissions of harmful gases into the environment, through a circular economy, the reduction of waste generation and encouraging the production of sustainable, climate-neutral and resource-efficient products, which includes all industries, e.g. energy, tourism, transport, agriculture, as well as maintenance of existing and the construction of new sustainable buildings. Only through sustainability can we meet the needs of current generations without compromising future ones. In the Republic of Croatia, tourism is one of the most important branches of the economy with great temporal and spatial disparity. In order to achieve sustainability goals, it is necessary to focus on more sustainable and environmentally conscious tourism, with a focus on relieving the currently overburdened land and seasonality of tourist activities in order to develop balanced and year-round tourism. We can achieve our goals through sustainability integration, i.e. sustainable practices in all economic sectors and industries, using a greater number of renewable energy sources, diversifying the energy mix, encouraging sustainable economic development, increasing energy efficiency, selecting more environmentally friendly products, reducing the amount of waste and most importantly, by awakening awareness in individuals, starting with ourselves.
