RT null T1 The National Environmental Policy for 2009-2012 amd Its 2016 Outlook A1 Poland, PB Council of Ministers, Republic of Poland YR 2008 FD 2008 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/9597 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/9597 NO This document outlines the strategic environmental agenda of Poland for the years 2009 to 2012, with a forward-looking perspective through 2016. It is prepared in accordance with the Act of 27 April 2001 on the Environmental Protection Law (Official Journal z 2008, No. 25, Item 150, further amended), which mandates the development of the National Environmental Policy every four years, including a four-year outlook. This approach follows the precedent set on 8 May 2003, when the Parliament approved the National Environmental Policy for 2003–2006 and its 2016 Outlook. Framed within evolving national priorities and European Union obligations, the document delivers a comprehensive analysis of environmental progress, persistent challenges, and strategic pathways. It addresses key areas such as air and water quality, waste management, biodiversity protection, sustainable forestry, and climate action. DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 19, 2026
