Summary:The subject of this paper is the introduction of the environmental protection concept in the central banking law to preserve natural resources and contribute to ensuring sustainable economic development. In that sense, the author will attempt to describe the potential contribution of green central bank legislation in managing and mitigating environmental issues, aiming to identify the ecological dimension of the European Central Bank (ECB) mandate, as the supreme monetary institution of the European Union (EU). The following text focuses on the functional analysis of the ECB’s potential legal mandate for environmental activities, their scope, limitations, and practical justification where the introduction of these new activities must be carefully managed without creating a collision with its primary task of maintaining monetary and financial stability.
