“…Due to improper solid waste management systems in settlements, as a rule, in the private sector, 26.6 thousand unauthorized landfills covering an area of 0.75 thousand hectares are detected annually, of which 26 thousand unauthorized landfills with an area of 0.68 thousand hectares were eliminated in 2018 (Ministry of Regional Development, 2019). Waste prevention measures are intended to break the link between economic growth and environmental impacts (Hubanova, 2017). Waste management policy should pay considerable attention to the promotion of product development in order to reduce their environmental impact and waste production.…”

“…However, the last report was published in 2009. An analysis of the ecological status of the river basins of Ukraine allows to identify the most acute problems: extensive water management, resulting in a crisis reduction of the river's self-replicating capacity and depletion of water resources (Gulac, 2019;Hubanova, 2017); huge volumes of wastewater discharges by industrial enterprises (Yara, 2018), lack of treatment systems in small settlements where sewage flows into groundwater and further into the water intake layer (Krasnova, 2019); irrational water use (Shulga, 2019). The difficulties of the implementation of the EU Nitrates Directive should be resolved.…”

At the time when great emphasis is being placed on environmental protection as well as on the introduction of environmental safeguards, we are faced with an undesirable phenomenon—environmental crime. Environmental crime represents one of the fastest growing security issues. It is a criminal activity, and like other crimes, it has serious consequences that are costly to eliminate. This article uses systematic analysis and, through scientific methods, points out the growth of environmental crime in Slovakia. At the same time, it introduces possible prevention tools. Our aim is to specify the term ‘environmental crime’, present the legal aspects of environmental crimes by focusing on Slovak legal regulation, extend the topic to bentonite mining and processing companies, map environmental crime in the EU Member States, and clarify the nature of environmental crime as well as the legal basis for the protection of the environment in Slovakia. The findings and conclusions have the potential to introduce a new approach to mapping the topic of environmental crimes, provide recommendations for the prevention of this type of crime, and open a discussion on the actual global problem. It is evident that the effective fight with environmental crime requires a complex and multidisciplinary approach at all levels. This includes, in particular, the use of relevant national policies and instruments, as well as those of the European Union and other international organizations.
