In this article, we analyzed economic surroundings as a precondition for the development of the tax environment in the context of alterglobal development. We admitted that economic globalization is harmful to the environment because it depends on its own viability: the constant increase in commodity consumption, the increased use of resources and the growing disposition to pollute waste in the ocean, on the ground, and in the air. So, we proposed considering and analyzing alterglobalization as a process oriented towards self‑determination for peoples, communities and nations. In this context, we developed the idea about Environmental Fiscal Reform, including increasing green taxation and the phase‑out of environmentally harmful subsidies as well as financial incentives, VAT reductions and tax breaks for green initiatives – providing the perfect conditions for the transition to a circular economy. As the new economy is developing at a rapid pace today – 10% per year, more than three times the global economic growth rate – it has a significant impact on competitiveness.

W niniejszym artykule przeanalizowano wpływ otoczenia gospodarczego na rozwój otoczenia podatkowego w kontekście rozwoju alterglobalnego. Uznano, że globalizacja gospodarcza oddziałuje negatywnie na środowisko, ponieważ jest ona pociąga ona za sobą stały wzrost konsumpcji towarowej, zwiększenie wykorzystania zasobów i wzrost ilości odpadów zanieczyszczających oceany, ziemię i powietrze. Dlatego zaproponowano przeanalizowanie i rozważenie wdrożenia alterglobalizacji jako procesu zorientowanego na samostanowienie ludzi, społeczności i narodów. W tym kontekście opracowano koncepcję reformy podatkowej w dziedzinie środowiska, w tym zwiększenia zielonego opodatkowania i wycofywania dotacji działań szkodliwych dla środowiska, a także wprowadzenia zachęt finansowych, obniżki podatku VAT oraz ulg podatkowych dla inicjatyw ekologicznych – zapewniających idealne warunki do przejścia do gospodarki cyrkularnej. Ponieważ nowe sektory gospodarki rozwijają się obecnie w szybkim tempie, wynoszącym 10% rocznie, co stanowi więcej niż trzykrotność globalnego tempa wzrostu gospodarczego, mają one znaczący wpływ na konkurencyjność.
