It is understood as the unification of social, economic, environmental and institutional development of society. A complicated complex of relationships is formed. The contribution is devoted to selected indicators monitored in Slovakia in the framework of sustainability dealing with the issue of connection and evaluation of environmental protection and exploitation and use of energy raw materials.
