The aim of the research is to approximate ecological safety issues, sustainable development and investment outlays for environmental protection and water management. The article is a theoretical and empirical review. It has been prepared using sources from GUS (polish Central Statistical Office). Analysis concern selected years from 2000 -2015. Investment outlays for environmental protection used by provinces and investor groups concern 2015. The following research tools were used: review of literature, descriptive and comparative analysis. Investment outlays in environment protection and water management increased, but their part in investment outlays in the national economy is not too high. The most of outlays for environmental protection in 2015 was incurred in following provinces: Mazowieckie, Wielkopolska and Śląskie, while the least in Warmińsko-Mazurskie and Podlaskie. The structure of investor groups for environmental protection has not changed for several years. The main investors are the companies (whose part in expenditures in this year was 67%), the next commune (27%), then the budget units (6%).

The activities of the poviat are a combination of interrelated factors. The use of natural resources should be carried out in accordance with the principles of sustainable development. The aim of this research was to assess the spatial differentiation of development relationships, the natural environment, and ecology of poviats in Poland, using a synthetic measure. Empirical data were collected in the spatial terms of poviats in Poland. The choice of variables was conditioned by the availability of data of the Central Statistical Office for 2010–2019. The assessment of development of poviats indicates disproportions in terms of development variables, as well as the natural environment and ecology, and the existence of a weak impact of natural conditions for development. Poviats distinguished by a higher level of natural environment are not characterized by a higher measure of development. The reason for the low impact of non-financial conditions on the development of poviats is their dependence on transfer from the state budget and the amount of current expenditure. The results may constitute a source of information for local government authorities on the disproportions existing between units, on the determination of directions of development policy optimization in terms of the natural environment and ecology.

Abstract This paper presents the benefits they can obtain business which aim to protect the environment. The environment protection has found its place and affects the process of systemic change of the Polish economy. This article assumes that building a competitive economy and enterprise development based on the principle of sustainable development requires the development of mechanisms for mutual benefits. These will be the economic mechanisms, technical and technological, and social. All these mechanisms are concentrated in clusters. Pursue sustainable development policies, an emphasis on environmental protection will be the general element for them a competitive advantage. Sustainable development will in this case be both the agent and the goal of economic and entrepreneurship development. Basing on the assumption that economic development is possible through the achievement of competitive advantage, sustainable development should be treated as its source.

This paper examines the practice and the effectiveness of the instrument of state financial transfers to the business sector in the implementation of investment in the field of environmental protection through Environment Protection Funds. Focusing on the case of Vietnam Environment Protection Fund, we found that the instrument of state financial transfers including grants, soft loans, accelerated depreciation allowances, tax incentives, and subsidies have propensity for lack of effectiveness due to creating insufficient incentives and increasing burden on the State budget. The application of market-based instruments is more effective but in Vietnam the rate of this figure is only 1% for market-based instruments while most of its budget (99%) spends on soft loans projects. Therefore, the recommendations are proposed to reduce the instruments of state financial transfers and foster use of market-based instruments in environmental protection activities for the sustainable development.

The article describes the changes that have taken place over 11 years in the development of technical infrastructure of the Kampinoski National Park (KPN) municipalities. The availability of waterworks and wastewater systems is important both in the context of health protection as well as for the preservation of unique natural values of KPN. Regarding that, a multifactoral analysis was performed for the time period 2004-2014 by increments of 5 years, ex. for 2004, 2009, 2014 etc. with the use of statistic data provided by Central Statistical Office of Poland (GUS) in the Local Data Base (BDL). The assessment of the socio-spatial availability is based on factors referred to surface or population. The analysis made it possible to point on differences in terms of living standards of the inhabitants of municipalities significantly influenced by nature. The graphical attachments show not only the current stage but also the dinamics of changes of technical infrastructure considered on the inhabitant service level which stands a base for a sustainable development.

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate various components of sustainable development (social, spatial-environmental, economic) in urban gminas (administrative region of the 3rd order in Poland) of the Warmińsko-Mazurskie voivodship (administrative region of the 1st order in Poland). The results were used to rank the analyzed gminas in terms of their sustainable development levels. The analysis was performed with the use of Hellwig’s composite measure of development. The results were used to determine the overall value of the composite measure, calculated as the median of composite measures for each of the three components of sustainable development. The above approach was used to rank gminas in view of their sustainable development levels. Data for the analysis was supplied by the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office and the Local Government Analysis System for 2010 covering 16 gminas in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie voivodship. The results of the analysis point to variations in the value of the main components of sustainable development in the evaluated urban gminas in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie voivodship.
