  • Green Bond Report on the Use of Proceeds Green​ Bond​ Report​ On​ The​ Use​ Of​ Proceeds
    GREEN BOND REPORT ON THE USE OF PROCEEDS Poland’s 8-year EUR Green Bond maturing on August 7, 2026 February 2019 Contents Introduction Green Bond details Use of Proceeds Use of Proceeds in detail COP24 in Katowice Erratum to the Green Bond Report on the Use of Proceeds published in December 2017 2 Introduction In December 2016, the Republic of Poland issued its inaugural Green Bond, which, at the same time, was the first sovereign Green Bond in the history. That successful transaction was aimed at financing or refinancing environmen- tal expenditures and hence, fighting the climate change. Many times the Ministry of Finance’s officials stated that Poland wanted to be a repeat issuer on this innovative market. It stressed that it wanted to be an inherent part of a broader pro-environmental community. In response to that, in February 2018, Poland decided to issue Green Bonds for the second time. This time bigger transaction translated into even higher value of green projects to be financed. This report provides details for the Use of Proceeds of the second issuance. It also contains estimation of CO2 avoided as a result of expenditures on Renewa- ble Energy Sector from both Green Bond issues (issued in December 2016 and February 2018). PIOTR NOWAK, UNDERSECRETARY OF STATE, MINISTRY OF FINANCE ”After launching the first issue we focused on allocation of proceeds, but, as time went by, we started to think about the second issue of that type. For sure, we didn’t and still don’t want to be only an occasional issuer on this important market.

  • Role of Cartographic Products in the Promotion of Tourism Based on the Example of Roztocze
    BAROMETR REGIONALNY TOM 13 NR 1 Role of Cartographic Products in the Promotion of Tourism Based on the Example of Roztocze Krzysztof Kałamucki, Andrzej Czerny Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, Poland Abstract The technologies of development, issuing, and visualisation of maps have changed over recent years. New forms of presentation have developed. Making maps available on mobile devices considerably increases their range of users. This can be used in a broadly defined scheme of promotion. This is determined in part by the practical function of maps, the mass and common character of their use, visualisation of maps on various information carriers, as well as the multimedial and interactive character of mod- ern electronic maps. The objective of the article is to evidence the usefulness of modern cartographic products for the promotion of tourism. The issue will be presented based on the changing functions of modern maps, and based on the example of Roztocze. Maps evoke tourists’ interest in a tourist region. They show its special values and attractions, effectively encourage visits and exploration of the region, and create its positive image. The effect of maps on their recipients is strong due to the presentation of promotional content with the application of modern forms of cartographic communication. Owing to varied cartographic products, Roztocze is promoted both in the virtual (internet) and actual space (on information boards in the field). Abundantly issued tourist maps are available throughout the country, and complement the means of promotion of tourism in the region. Keywords: tourist map, functions of maps, large format maps, promotion of tourism, tourist region Introduction Maps constitute a universal means of transmitting information, and particularly information with spatial character .

  • Relationship Between the Geotourism Potential and Function in the Polish Part of the Roztocze Transboundary Biosphere Reserve
    geosciences Article Relationship between the Geotourism Potential and Function in the Polish Part of the Roztocze Transboundary Biosphere Reserve Teresa Brzezi ´nska-Wójcik Faculty of Earth Sciences and Spatial Management, Maria Curie-Sklodowska University, Al. Kra´snicka,2d, 20-031 Lublin, Poland; [email protected] Abstract: The Polish part of the Roztocze Transboundary Biosphere Reserve area is characterized by diversified geotourism resources with relatively high value. However, their potential seems not to be fully used in the current product offer. The aim of the study was therefore to assess the spatial variability of the geotourism potential and function and to determine their interrelations in view of further development of geotourism in the Roztocze TBR and the perspective of creation of the “Kamienny Las na Roztoczu” geopark. The study was carried out with the use of the taxonomic method of multidimensional comparative analysis consisting of calculation and analysis of general, total, and partial indices of the geotourism potential and function in 22 communes. The results showed the highest total indicator of geotourism potential in two communes, i.e., Józefów and Krasnobród, and the highest value of the total geotourism function index in Krasnobród. The results of the analysis of the relationships between the geotourism potential and function indicate that the geotourism resources and products are fully used in terms of the development of the function only in Krasnobród commune. In turn, the value of the total geotourism function index in the Zwierzyniec commune exceeds the geotourism potential indicator, which implies that this area is overloaded by tourist movement. The total indicators of geotourism potential in the other Citation: Brzezi´nska-Wójcik,T.

The signing of the visa-free travel agreement between Ukraine and the EU on 17 May 2017 and its entry into force on 11 June 2017 has become an important factor in the development of tourism in Ukraine and Poland, in particular within the border areas and in the context of cross-border cooperation of the Carpathian Euroregion. Tourists from Ukraine have better opportunities than before to travel to many European countries, and tourist migration contributes to the integration of peoples, building good-neighbourly relations and tolerance, economic, cultural, scientific and other forms of cooperation.

The studied facilities were located in the territory of the Roztocze National Park (Poland). The mean wastewater flow rate in the WWTPs was 1.0 and 1.6 m3/day. In 2017–2019, 20 series of analyses were done, and 40 wastewater samples were taken. On the basis of the received results, the efficiency of basic pollutant removal was determined. The technological reliability of the tested facilities was specified using the Weibull method. The average removal efficiencies for the biochemical oxygen demand in 5 days (BOD5) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were 66–83% and 62–65%, respectively. Much lower effects were obtained for total suspended solids (TSS) and amounted to 17–48%, while the efficiency of total phosphorus (TP) and total nitrogen (TN) removal did not exceed 34%.

  • Polish-Ukrainian Borderland Cultural Heritage Bridges—Lesson Drawn from Forced Population Relocation
    sustainability Article Polish-Ukrainian Borderland Cultural Heritage Bridges—Lesson Drawn from Forced Population Relocation Bohdan Cherkes ,Józef Hernik , Karol Król * and Magdalena Wilkosz-Mamcarczyk Department of Land Management and Landscape Architecture, University of Agriculture in Kraków, Balicka 253c, 30-198 Kraków, Poland; [email protected] (B.C.); [email protected] (J.H.); [email protected] (M.W.-M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Due to the turbulent history, unstable political situation, and the diverse ethnic composition of the population, there are numerous and varied cultural heritage objects in the Polish-Ukrainian borderland area, which has also developed characteristic landscape forms. The aim of the paper is to identify the elements of Polish cultural heritage that have remained in the collective memory of inhabitants of the Ukrainian side of the Polish-Ukrainian borderland 75 years after the forced relocation. The questionnaire survey was carried out in 2019 in selected cities of Eastern Galicia, namely, Zhovkva, Mostyska, Horodok, and Rava-Ruska. The study demonstrated that even 75 years after the forced relocation, Polish cultural heritage is still alive and has an effect on the development of the border towns and cities of Eastern Galicia. It is the elements of non-material culture, including the gastronomic culture of relocated nations, that have been preserved the best in the collective memory of borderland inhabitants. The Ukrainian population also demonstrated a good knowledge of Polish traditions and Catholic feasts as well as folk songs and Christmas carols. These are “cultural heritage bridges” that may serve as both a forum for mutual understanding and a platform for a Citation: Cherkes, B.; Hernik, J.; dialogue and cooperation.

The high level of biodiversity is one of the most attractive features of nature of Roztocze region. Ukrainian part covers only 1/3 of the total area of Roztocze, but still is characterized by high variability of habitats and biodiversity. On the Ukrainian Roztocze there are found 1,344 plant species, 146 plant communities (identified with the Braun-Blanquet method), including 23 protected habitats belonging to the Natura 2000 network. The great variety of Roztocze is caused by the interaction of natural factors, primarily climate and soils, but also anthropogenic influence. All of these factors operate simultaeously enabling the creation of unique vegetation of Roztocze. INTRODUCTION High level of biological diversity is one of the most attractive features of the nature of Roztocze region. Ukrainian part of this region represents only 1/3 of the area of the whole Roztocze but is still characterised by large variability of habitats and biodiversity. This is the result of the geographical situation of Roztocze through which pass rivers originating in neighbouring regions of Polesia and western Podolia. There are ecologically valuable wetlands which shape the hydrological conditions of the region.
