Abstract
However, the linear economy and its current model will not be able to ensure long-term sustainability. It is not appropriate, and above all possible, to increase production from primary sources indefinitely. In some areas, it directly affects the population's life. It brings negative elements, such as climate change, increasing differences between poor and rich regions, and natural disasters with more serious consequences. Emerging problems such as the deterioration of air, soil and water quality directly impact declining human well-being. But there is an economic model in which such non-ecological behaviour and waste of resources do not occur. This model is called a circular economy. The manuscript is focused on applying the circular economy within the enterprises of the Slovak Republic and individual EU states. An important task will be to use the information system and the method for obtaining data and subsequent processing. A properly set up circular economy can minimize the waste of resources, improve the efficiency of their use, reduce g reenhouse gas emissions and contribute to the preservation of biodiversity.
