Threats of sustainable development resulting from legal requirements of spatial planning in Poland

Journal Title: Economic and Environmental Studies - Year 2016, Vol 16, Issue 2

Abstract

Man, being one of the elements of the environment, depends on its quality. Currently, the right to a clean environment is included in the basic human rights and the way to maintain it is sustainable development. One element of this development is the preservation and protection of biodiversity, which is the subject to the increasing impoverishment as a result of human activity, including spatial policy. Progressive building of new areas, both as a result of oversupply of investment areas (residential, industrial, etc.) in local plans and decisions on land development conditions causes the degradation of environment by reducing the surface of open areas, depletion of the species composition of plants and animals. Among the reasons of this state of affairs we can mention, among others, faulty spatial planning system and consequent – indirectly - land management. The purpose of this paper is worded as follows: the existing legal solutions of Polish spatial planning system destructively affect biodiversity, and thus sustainable development in Poland.
