Plans to improve air quality in Slovenia include a number of measures. It is crucial that the state ensures the financing of measures and thus the implementation of measures, and consequently the improvement of ambient air quality. In 2019, as much as EUR 15.56 million more investments were paid out than in 2014. In the period from 2014 to 2019, most investments were in wood biomass boilers, followed by investments in heat pumps.

The total renewable amount of groundwater in shallow aquifers in Slovenia in the hydrological year 2019 was below the average of the comparative hydrological water balance period 1981-2010.

Greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, mainly methane and nitrous oxide, decreased by 11.0% from 1986 to 2019. The largest declines occurred in pig and cattle production and in fertilizer application to agricultural crops. The rapid decline in emissions was typical of the early years of this period. After that, the decline slowed down. In 2019, Slovenia achieved the target (0.3% increase of greenhouse gas emissions compared to 2005) set by Operational programme for limiting greenhouse gas emissions until 2020 (increase by a maximum of 5% compared to 2005).

Energy consumption in transport has been declining slightly in recent years. This is due to combination of lower domestic vehicle consumption as well as lower sales to foreign vehicles. Most of the energy is used in road transport. Consumption of diesel fuel in road transport is increasing.

Intensity of agriculture in Slovenia is moderate, directed mostly at improving labour intensity in agricultural production, i.e. reducing the input of labour per unit of area or product. The number of livestock units (LU) per hectare of utilised agricultural area, as the aggregate indicator of production intensity, is stable; in the 2000–2020 period, the stocking density, like in other EU countries, has slightly decreased. Due to economic pressures (market-price relationships) the agricultural holdings are forced to reduce production costs and increase productivity and farming intensity.
