The right to initiate development projects with the purpose of enjoying material benefits is justified only as long as ‘those projects do not significantly damage the environment.’
Happiness requires both development and healthy environment.
Happiness is possible only in the state of the harmony between development and environmental protection.
The harmony is reached ‘in the context of the particular situation involved.’
Therefore, there cannot be any specific rules which can determine automatically the outcome of balancing between the development projects and the need to protect the environment. It requires a different type of legal and judicial reasoning: not a blind application of rules, but the ability to grasp the needs of the humankind and having the vision of human happiness which does not destroy the environment but finds its fulfilment in its preservation.
