Recommendations<br />
for an integrated approach to<br />
<strong>environmental</strong> <strong>problems</strong> recognition<br />
<strong>and</strong><br />

Contents<br />
• Environmental <strong>problems</strong> of urban system<br />
in lights of input – output approach;<br />
• Attitudes <strong>and</strong> challenges to <strong>environmental</strong><br />
management in urban areas;<br />
• „Drivers – Pressure – State – Impact –<br />
Response” as a usefull approach in<br />

Key features of urban<br />
environment<br />
• High density of human population <strong>and</strong><br />
synanthropic taxons as well<br />
• Men-made concentration of matter <strong>and</strong><br />
energy<br />
• Pollution of <strong>environmental</strong> elements as a side<br />
effect of anthropogenic metabolism<br />

<strong>Urban</strong> ecosystem metabolism –<br />
• INPUTS<br />
– Immigrants<br />
– Food<br />
– Water<br />
input-output approach<br />
– Energy supplay<br />
(Electric energy & Fuels)<br />
– Products for users<br />
– materials for construction<br />
– Industry supplay<br />
– Agriculture supplay<br />
– Others?<br />
• OUTPUTS<br />
– Emigrants<br />
– Manufactural products<br />
– Agriculture products<br />
– Materials for recycling<br />
– Waste<br />
– Sewage<br />
– Air pollutants<br />
– Energy emissions<br />
– Others?<br />

Environmental <strong>problems</strong> =<br />
troubles with urban metabolism<br />
control<br />
• Metabolism related to:<br />
– housing, transportation, construction,<br />
secondary production, primary production,<br />
• Challenges:<br />
– closing the set of fluxes into cycles;<br />
– recirculative economy development.<br />

Diverse attitudes to urban<br />
environment<br />
• BASIC APPROACH, Environment seen as<br />
the source of energy <strong>and</strong> natural goods;<br />
• REACTIVE APPROACH, Increased<br />
consideration about st<strong>and</strong> of <strong>environmental</strong><br />
elements;<br />
• STRATEGIC APPROACH, Environment is<br />
seen on integrated way from life quality<br />
perspective.<br />

Main challenges for<br />
<strong>environmental</strong> management in<br />
urban areas<br />
• How to cover inhabitants dem<strong>and</strong> for water,<br />
food, energy <strong>and</strong> other core goods - basic<br />
approach.<br />
• How to improve the quality of <strong>environmental</strong><br />
elements (how to reduce air, water, soil<br />
pollution, noise <strong>and</strong> to improve waste<br />
management) - reactive approach<br />
• How to rich sustainable high life quality for<br />
inhabitants - strategic approach.<br />

Features of life quality<br />
• ENVIRONMENTAL: quality of <strong>environmental</strong><br />
elements, hygienic st<strong>and</strong>ards of communal<br />
services, recreational value of environment<br />
• Environmental related SOCIAL issues: level of<br />
social sensitivity on environment,<br />
nature&l<strong>and</strong>scape quality<br />
• Environmental related ECONOMIC issues:<br />
extension of use following policy instruments:<br />
respect on “polluter/user pays principle”,<br />
consideration on external costs <strong>and</strong> benefits,<br />
valuing of ecosystem services.<br />

DRIVERS – PRESSURE – STATE<br />
– IMPACT – RESPONSE:<br />
Usefull framework for<br />
comprehensive <strong>environmental</strong><br />
planning/management in<br />
urban areas<br />

Elements of DPSIR interaction<br />
system<br />
• Driving forces – recognition of environment related<br />
social & economic development aspects;<br />
• Pressure – sectoral analyse of emissions from<br />
housing, transportation, manufacturing, agriculture<br />
• State – pollution - systematic monitoring of air,<br />
water, soil, incl. noise, radiation, waste, as well biotic<br />
elements of ecosystems<br />
• Impact – identification of direct & indirect<br />
consequences for nature, health, economy, social.<br />
• Response – stimulation of stakeholders reaction on<br />
the identified <strong>problems</strong>.<br />
