The growth of the urban population, as well as the industrial growth, contributes to the increase of the quantities of generated waste. These can affect the environment. In the European Union, the population has a predominantly urban distribution. For this reason, the article analyzes issues related to municipal waste generated. Failure to use raw materials to the maximum leads to rapid depletion of natural resources. Also, in this situation the amounts of waste can increase. The degree of global warming is also influenced by the way the products are made. Thus, in addition to household waste, municipal waste also includes waste generated by small businesses and institutions. For European Union member states, the article presents an analysis of the degree to which municipal waste is treated. DOI: https://doi.org/10.53486/9789975155618.11; CZU: [005:628.4]:061.1EU; JEL: Q53, Q50
