Abstract [eng] Rapid economic growth and globalisation have positive and also negative impacts on environmental aspects and people’s lives. And, people live in conditions of extreme change. This raises new requirements for living for every individual. In the current era of globalization it is necessary to stop the destructive processes of globalization, to create a different vision of globalization based on the principles of sustainable development, taking into account not only economic indicators but also social and ecological coherence. Sustainable development is a complex process that aims to ensure the well-being for present and future generations. However, the emerging economic and environmental challenges make this process more difficult.
