  • Pierwsze Notowania Rządu Ewy Kopacz
    Warszawa, październik 2014 ISSN 2353-5822 NR 145/2014 PIERWSZE NOTOWANIA RZĄDU EWY KOPACZ Znak jakości przyznany CBOS przez Organizację Firm Badania Opinii i Rynku 14 stycznia 2014 roku Fundacja Centrum Badania Opinii Społecznej ul. Świętojerska 5/7, 00-236 Warszawa e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] http://www.cbos.pl (48 22) 629 35 69 Okoliczności powołania rządu Ewy Kopacz są nietypowe. Dotychczas do zmiany premiera w trakcie kadencji Sejmu dochodziło zazwyczaj w efekcie negatywnych zjawisk i procesów na scenie politycznej, np. takich jak podważenie osobistej wiarygodności szefa rządu, brak stabilnej większości parlamentarnej czy wyczerpanie się społecznego poparcia dla ustępującego gabinetu. Tym razem powołanie nowego rządu nastąpiło w wyniku awansu premiera z polityki polskiej do europejskiej. Oprócz prezesa Rady Ministrów z rządu odeszła wicepremier Elżbieta Bieńkowska, która została unijnym komisarzem ds. rynku wewnętrznego i usług, przemysłu, przedsiębiorczości oraz małych i średnich przedsiębiorstw. Mimo tych zmian skład personalny nowego rządu jest zbliżony do składu poprzedniego gabinetu, większość ministrów bowiem zachowała swoje stanowiska. Wprawdzie odejście Donalda Tuska z krajowej polityki – w przekonaniu nie tylko wielu komentatorów politycznych, ale także znacznej części opinii publicznej w Polsce – osłabia Platformę Obywatelską i współtworzony przez nią rząd1, ale jednocześnie stwarza szansę na kolejne „nowe otwarcie” i odbudowanie nadwyrężonego wizerunku rządzącej partii. Rząd Ewy Kopacz budzi umiarkowanie pozytywne reakcje2. W to, że sytuacja w kraju się poprawi w wyniku działań nowego gabinetu, wierzy 36% badanych. Niepokój przed pogorszeniem wyraża 15% ankietowanych. Prawie jedna piąta (19%) uważa, że nic się nie zmieni. 1 Por. komunikat CBOS „Polska polityka po nominacji Donalda Tuska na szefa Rady Europejskiej”, wrzesień 2014 (oprac.

They long to know what the decision-makers are thinking, so they can plan ahead. They yearn to be in the loop, to have the drop on things. It is the genius of the lobbyists and the consultants to understand this need, and to satisfy it in the most imaginative way. Business forums are vehicles for forging links and maintain a dialogue with business, industrial and trade organisations. They allow the discussions of general and pre-legislative issues in a different context from lobbying contacts about specific matters. They provide an opportunity to get Members of the European Parliament and other decision-makers from the European institutions together with various business sectors.

  • Ms Mairead Mcguinness European Commissioner for Financial Services, Financial Stability and the Capital Markets Union Mr
    TO: Ms Mairead McGuinness European Commissioner for Financial Services, Financial Stability and the Capital Markets Union Mr Valdis Dombrovskis European Commission Executive Vice-President for An Economy that Works for People CC: Mr Frans Timmermans European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal Ms Kadri Simson European Commissioner for Energy Brussels, 13 April 2021 Dear Executive Vice-President Dombrovskis, Dear Commissioner McGuinness, We are convinced that the Taxonomy Regulation is crucial for the European Union to achieve both the new greenhouse gas emissions reduction target for 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. Additionally, the Regulation should help strengthening the European Union’s strategic resilience and global economic competitiveness, maintaining its energy security and affordability, boosting growth and job creation and supporting a just and inclusive energy transition that leaves nobody behind. However, to what extent the Taxonomy Regulation will ultimately meet these expectations depends primarily on the technical screening criteria (TSC) defined in the Delegated Act on climate change mitigation and adaptation. We understand the European Commission will publish it later this month, whereupon the European Parliament may make full use of its scrutinizing prerogatives under Article 290 TFEU. In advance of its publication, we would like to share with you some of our major concerns regarding the revised draft version of this delegated act. Firstly, it is indispensable that the Taxonomy Regulation takes into account transition at the energy system level and supports the most cost-efficient decarbonisation pathway for each Member State in line with the principle of technology neutrality. In this context, it is key to acknowledge the role of gaseous fuels.

The United Strategy (ESS), which began with the States provided the military underpinning for a Europe whole memorable statement that “Europe has and free, but its record in other parts of the world has been never been so prosperous, so secure nor mixed at best. Russia is still lagging behind where it was when so free”. But Europe and the world have the Cold War ended. Japan has stagnated.

  • Top 10 Polish Politicians on Twitter – a Revolution in Politi‐ Cal Communication? – Reconnaissance Research
    Tomasz Gackowski TOP 10 POLISH POLITICIANS ON TWITTER – A REVOLUTION IN POLITI‐ CAL COMMUNICATION? – RECONNAISSANCE RESEARCH Keywords: politics, Twitter, political communication, content analysis, automatic analysis Introduction – political impact of Twitter In December 2013, a few days before Christmas Eve, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Republic of Poland published an interview with Radosław Sikorski, Polish Minister of Foreign Affairs1, summing up the year 2013. In this interview the minister – inter alia – expressed his thoughts about activity of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs in social media (mainly Twitter). He has said that nowadays Twitter seems to be one of the most effective tools in modern diplomacy. Sikorski boasted that his ministry is perceived as being the third most active institutions in social media in the whole world, after the External Action Service of the European Union, but before the British or French Ministries of Foreign Affairs. He stressed that the activity of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Twitter has been an effect of a cultural and informational breakthrough in Polish diplomacy. He directly connected being on Twitter with running a diplomacy service. He said – Thanks to Twitter we are able to spread our statements quicker and wider, to many people and institutions at once. 1http://www.msz.gov.pl/pl/aktualnosci/wiadomosci/minister_spraw_zagranicznych_podsumo wuje_rok_2013_i_mowi_o_planach_na_przyszlosc, 8.01.2013 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtMWgWTWha4#t=15, 8.01.2013. 132 Furthermore, we can – through the social media – create the global platform of informational confrontation in diplomacy. Next – a day before the New Year’s Eve of 2014 – Donald Tusk, Prime Minister of Poland, decided to sum up the passing year with users of Twitter during an hour – between 3 and 4 pm on his Twitter account.

  • CCUS: Time to Incentivise Carbon-Removals Technologies to Achieve Climate Neutrality
    14 June 2021 To: Frans Timmermans, First Executive Vice-President of the European Commission CC: Kadri Simson, Commissioner for Energy Thierry Breton, Commissioner for the Internal Market and Services Virginijus Sinkevičius, Commissioner for Environment, Oceans and Fisheries Dear Executive Vice-President Timmermans, CCUS: Time to incentivise carbon-removals technologies to achieve climate neutrality The ambition of the EU regarding both the 2030 and 2050 climate targets is now confirmed. Stakeholders ranging from the UNFCCC and the IEA to other global economies, including the US and China, recognise that reducing CO2 emissions to net zero by 2050 cannot realistically be achieved without deployment of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) / Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU). Model scenarios that limit global warming to 1.5 or 2°C rely on large amounts of CO2 removals from the atmosphere. Capturing and permanently storing the CO2 from different industries across Europe, including cement, fertilizers, steel, refining, chemicals and waste facilities can help achieve this. For instance, CCS deployed with Waste-to-Energy does not simply curb the release of CO2 emissions; through the burning of unrecyclable and otherwise untreatable biogenic waste, it actually removes emissions from the atmosphere. It is a game changer, and part of the climate and circular economy solution. We believe that environmentally safe and socially beneficial CO2 removal technologies are a key complement to the EU’s existing climate change mitigation tools. In particular, bioenergy combined with CCS (BECCS) provides opportunity of CO2 removals to be stored with a degree of permanence that nature-based removals of CO2 alone can rarely offer.
