Abstract

This article examines the issue of a green economy, with emphasis on conceptual considerations and its links with the concept of sustainability. It also highlights the stages of implementing a green economy. Each of them is accompanied by measures implemented both by the state, business and society. The development of a green economy also raises issues of its measurement.
