Abstract:
Environmental problems affecting the global community and its climate and thus endangering the natural functioning of the ecosystem are attracting worldwide attention. Waste management is one of the most urgent problems of human existence, as the population is increasingly centralised in cities and produces increasingly more waste that negatively affects the environment and degrades people's quality of life. The aim of the article is to illustrate the state of separation of municipal waste in the Slovak Republic, the importance of separation and the possibility of increasing it through the emphasis on community, the establishment of social enterprises in social entrepreneurship and incorporation of disadvantaged populations in the labour market to solve this problem.
Keywords –environment, municipal waste, separation. |
