Abstract
Several quests for solutions have emerged around the world concerning the climate change the severe effects of which have been observed especially since 2000. To that end, European Union (EU) signed the European Green Deal in 2019. The documentation brings together the targeted sustainable economy and sustainable environment. This study mainly focuses on such issue. The principles put forward by the European Green Deal have been examined. The extent to which the Turkish legislation covers the said principles has been investigated. Because, a strong legal basis is needed for the principles stipulated by the Deal to be implemented. The extent of compliance to the principles and legislation has been presented as well as the areas of weakness which must be improved. European Green Deal is important for Turkey in terms of both the significant commercial agreements it has with the European Union, and its European Union membership process. Moreover, European Green Deal stands out as a document that will shape the sustainable environment and sustainable economy not only in Europe but also around the world, with its principles.
