Abstract
Climate change is a 21st century phenomenon and is becoming one of the major challenges of environmental policy. While the manifestations of climate change are diverse across the world and across regions, its negative consequences on socio-economic and natural systems are increasingly significant and require active resolution. To this end, many organizations, associations, and governments are approaching the introduction of new measures that will help eliminate the negative effects of human activity on the environment. To this end, for example, green (energy) taxes are introduced, the amount of waste produced is monitored more and the rate of recycling and reuse of materials is supported, thus meeting the fundamental aspects of the circular economy. The contribution provides an overview and thus comparisons of selected European countries in the field of parameters supporting sustainable development, such as green, energy taxes and revenues from their collection, waste management and waste recycling rate in the construction sector. The result of the research will be the creation of a ranking of countries, based on the punctual assessment, in income from energy tax collection and in the area of waste generation, waste recycling and waste recovery rate from construction and demolition. The declared results will subsequently constitute the basis for the development of a strategic crisis plan, which can be implemented within the individual economies of European countries.
