Summary/Abstract: The impact of pollution is mainly manifested in urban areas. The economy is also affected. Sustainable economic development can be achieved through measures leading to a reduction in emissions from transport, agriculture and energy. An important source of water pollution is both the industrial sector and the numerical growth of the population. This pollution influences the quality of drinking water resources. However, water quality is influenced by improper treatment of wastewater. Thus, the article presents an analysis of urban population exposure to air pollution by particulate matter. The article also presents an analysis of the degree to which the population is connected to urban wastewater collection and treatment systems. The analyzes are performed at the level of the member countries of the European Union.
