| EC regulation | reglament comunitari | |
| EC regulation on eco-management and audit | Reglament comunitari sobre la gestió ecològica i l'auditoria | |
| EC regulation on existing chemicals (Regulation designed to identify and control of risks deriving from existing chemicals. According to this program the main goal is the collection of basic information about existing chemicals including their uses and characteristics, environmental fate and pathways, toxicity and ecotoxicity) | Reglament comunitari sobre substàncies químiques existents | |
| EC Treaty | tractat CE | |
| echinoderm (Marine coelomate animals distinguished from all others by an internal skeleton composed of calcite plates, and a water-vascular system to serve the needs of locomotion, respiration, nutrition or perception) | equinoderm | |
| eco-balance (An eco-balance refers to the consumption of energy and resources and the pollution caused by the production cycle of a given product. The product is followed throughout its entire life cycle, from the extraction of the raw materials, manufacturing and use, right through to recycling and final handling of waste) | equilibri ecològic | |
| eco-paediatrics (Branch of medical science concerning the study and the therapy of children diseases caused by environmental factors) | ecopediatria | |
| ecocatastrophe (A sudden, widespread disaster or calamity causing extensive damage to the environment that threatens the quality of life for people living in the affected area or region, potentially leading to many deaths) | ecocatàstrofe | |
| ecodevelopment (1. Conservative development based on long term optimization of biosphere resources. 2. An approach to development through rational use of natural resources by means of appropriate technology and system of production which take into account and provide for the conservation of nature) | desenvolupament ecològic | |
| ecolabel (A mark, seal or written identification attached or affixed to products that provides specific ecological information allowing consumers to make comparisons with other similar products, or instructions on how to safely use or properly recycle or dispose of both products and packaging) | etiqueta ecològica | |
| ecolabelling (The European Community's initiative to encourage the promotion of environmentally friendly products. The scheme came into operation in late 1992 and was designed to identify products which are less harmful to the environment than equivalent brands. It was hoped that by buying labelled goods, consumers would be able to put pressure on manufacturers and retailers both to make and to stock "greener" products. This includes the effects they have on the environment at all stages. The labels are awarded on environmental criteria set by the EC) | etiquetatge ecològic | |
| ecological abundance (Number of individual specimens of an animal or plant seen over a certain period of time in a certain place) | cabal ecològic | |
| ecological adaptation (Change in an organism so that it is better able to survive or reproduce, thereby contributing to its fitness) | adaptació ecològica | |
| ecological assessment (Ecological assessment consists in monitoring the current and changing conditions of ecological resources from which success or failure of the ecosystem can be judged without bias; understanding more fully the structure and function of ecosystems in order to develop improved management options; developing models to predict the response of ecosystems to changes resulting from human-induced stress from which possible ecosystem management strategies can be assessed and assessing the ecological consequences of management actions so that decisionmakers can best understand the outcomes of choosing a particular management strategy) | avaluació ecològica | |
| ecological balance (The condition of equilibrium among the components of a natural community such that their relative numbers remain fairly constant and their ecosystem is stable. Gradual readjustments to the composition of a balanced community take place continually in response to natural ecological succession and to alterations in climatic and other influences) | equilibri ecològic | |
| ecological bookkeeping (The systematic accounting or recordkeeping of a company's impact on the environment or its progress towards environmentally sound business practices) | comptabilitat ecològica | |
| ecological carrying capacity (1. The maximum number of species an area can support during the harshest part of the year, or the maximum biomass it can support indefinitely. 2. The maximum number of grazing animals an area can support without deterioration) | capacitat de càrrega ecològica | |
| ecological community (1. All of the plants and animals in an area or volume; a complex association usually containing both animals and plants. 2. Any naturally occurring group of organisms that occupy a common environment) | comunitat ecològica | |
| ecological factor (An environmental factor that, under some definite conditions, can exert appreciable influence on organisms or their communities, causing the increase or decrease in the number of organisms and/or changes in the communities) | factor ecològic | |
| ecological inequality (Any imbalance or disparity among inhabitants of the same living environment deemed inappropriate, unjust or detrimental to that environment's integrity) | desigualtat ecològica |
