In this paper the author presents an analysis of options for registering and allocating funds from the sale of rights to greenhouse gas emissions in the state budget, taking into account their volume and impact resulting from the preliminary estimates of selected research institutions and relevant EU legislation recommendations. The analysis applies to the EU countries, with a particular emphasis on Poland. It also describes proposed changes in the EU budget for 2014–2020 regarding climate policy and discusses new solutions in this field.

Unia Europejska otwarcie aspiruje do odgrywania przywódczej roli na świecie w zakresie przeciwdziałania zmianom klimatu. W tym celu rozwija Europejski System Handlu Uprawnieniami do Emisji (EU ETS), który wymusza inwestycje w kapitałochłonne eko-technologie. Powiązanie zmian klimatu z bezpieczeństwem energetycznym wyraża nie tylko intencję ochrony środowiska naturalnego, ale bardziej jest wynikiem powiązań ekologii z interesami gospodarczymi poszczególnych państw członkowskich. Autor podejmuje próbę wyjaśnienia motywów oraz mechanizmów systemu EU ETS jako narzędzia polityki niskoemisyjnej UE oraz implikacji polityczno-gospodarczych dla państw członkowskich UE.

The European Union openly aspires to the role of the world leader in the fight against climate changes. This is why it is developing the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) promoting capital-intensive investments in eco-technologies. Bringing the issues of climate change and energy security together not only illustrates the need for protecting natural environment, but, even most importantly, it is a result of mutual relations between ecology and economy-related interests of particular member states. The author tries to explain the reasons and major mechanisms behind the EU ETS system as a tool of EU’s low-emission policy, as well as its political and economic implications for EU’s members.

In its plan of climatic package the European Commission has suggested that from 2013 power stations will have to buy 100% permits for CO2 emission to the atmosphere on the Union market for trading emissions. Companies that have the rights to emit carbon dioxide have to carry out a lot of duties, which in a natural way causes an increase in the cost of their functioning. The duties that have to be carried out by the subject participating in the system of trading the rights for emission result from the formal and legal requirements imposed on these enterprises. The companies also have to implement the structures and processes that will make it possible to manage the rights they possess as well as to carry out purchase or sale transactions. Such structures surely will have to take into consideration a lot of areas where the company functions: from the question of environmental protection, through financial issues, to the area of planning investments.

The purpose of this paper is to present the evolution of energy and climate policy (globally, in Europe, and in Poland) and review the tools which Poland could use to transform its economy towards a low carbon one. The author argues that energy and climate policy have become an economic policy that calls for a change in the socio economic model. As a consequence, this low carbon transition brings a change in the current model of state and society. The author supports this thesis by presenting global trends in energy and climate policies, explaining the dynamics of the EU policies related to emissions reductions, and outlining the current dilemmas of the modernisation of Poland. The paper concludes by presenting a set of tools that could be used for low carbon transition in Poland.

This article focuses on the synthesis of conditional dependence structure of recursive Bayesian estimation of dynamic state space models with time-varying parameters using a newly modified recursive Bayesian algorithm. The results of empirical applications to climate data from Nigeria reveals that the relationship between energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission in Nigeria reached the lowest peak in the late 1980s and the highest peak in early 2000. For South Africa, the slope trajectory of the model descended to the lowest in the mid-1990s and attained the highest peak in early 2000. These changepoints can be attributed to the economic growth, regime changes, anthropogenic activities, vehicular emissions, population growth and industrial revolution in these countries. These results have implications on climate change prediction and global warming in both countries, and also shows that recursive Bayesian dynamic model with time-varying parameters is suitable for statistical inference in climate change and policy analysis.

UE przyjęła walkę z globalnym ociepleniem i z emisją gazów cieplarnianych za priorytet swojej aktywności już u progu lat 90. Bardziej niż inni aktorzy (USA, Chiny, Rosja) przyczyniała się do realizacji protokołu z Kioto, a w 2005 r. uruchomiła pierwszą międzynarodową giełdę pozwoleń na emisję gazów cieplarnianych. Zagadnienie to wielokrotnie było poruszane na spotkaniach Rady Europejskiej. Jednak kryzys 2008 r. zmniejszył unijne zaangażowanie w ochronę klimatu. Można wręcz uznać, że recesja gospodarcza skuteczniej od zakazów ograniczyła emisję gazów cieplarnianych.

Fighting global warming and greenhouse gas emissions became a priority of the EU’s activity already shortly before 1990s. Compared to other actors (the USA, China, Russia), it contributed more to the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol, and in 2005 it launched the first international green house gas emission permit exchange. This issue has been repeatedly discussed during European Council meetings. However, the 2008 crisis reduced the EU’s engagement in climate protection. One can even say that economic recession was more effective in reducing green house gases than any bans.

In the course of analysing the annual air temperature in Wrocław (TWr), a rapid change of the thermal regime was found between 1987 and 1989. TWr increased by >1°C, a strong, statistically significant positive trend emerged. The analysis of processes showed that strong warming in the cold season of the year (December–March) occurred as a result of an increase in the NAO intensity and warming in the warm season because of increased sunshine duration in Wrocław (ShWr). Multiple regression analysis has shown that the winter NAO Hurrell’s index explains 15% of TWr variance, and the ShWr of the long-day (April–August) period 49%, whereas radiative forcing 5.9%. This indicates that the factors incidental to the internal variability of the climate system explain 64% of the TWr variability and the effect of increased CO2 concentration only ~6%. The reason for this rapid change of the thermal regime was a radical change in macro-circulation conditions in the Atlantic-European circular sector, which took place between 1988 and 1989. The heat, which is the cause of warming in Wrocław, comes from an increase in solar energy inflow (April–August) and also is transported to Europe from the North Atlantic surface by atmospheric circulation (NAO). These results indicate that the role of CO2 in shaping the contemporary temperature increase is overestimated, whereas the internal variability of the climate system is underestimated.

This article reviews the observational evidence of climate change and discusses its mechanisms, impacts, and projections for the future with particular reference to Poland. Discussion with skeptical theses regarding climate change is also presented. Since much of the expected impact of climate change is adverse, effective mitigation and adaptation activities are necessary. This statement is also valid for Poland, even if Poland is not especially adversely affected by global warming.

This article describes the role of forests in climate change policy. It examines the inclusion of the forestry sector into the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol, focusing mainly on two concepts currently being developed in international debates: LULUCF (Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry) and REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation). In addition to providing an overview and analysis of these concepts, the article also outlines their potential consequences for forests in Poland and reviews the EU actions to include the forestry sector into European climate policy. Finally, some issues related to forest use for carbon offsetting and energy generation are discussed as well.

This paper deals with the subject of various types of cooling during drilling of Inconel 718. The wear indicator of VBB (abrasion on the flank surface) and the chips generated during drilling were compared. Three drilling methods have been compared: with a cutting fluid, gas cooled with carbon dioxide, and without cooling. It was found that cooling with the use of liquid best influences the durability of the tool, however, gas cooling also reduces wear and facilitates chip removal

Niniejsza praca porusza temat różnych rodzajów chłodzenia podczas wiercenia Inconelu 718. Porównano ze sobą zużycie VBB (starcia na powierzchni przyłożenia) oraz powstający przy wierceniu wiór. Porównano ze sobą trzy sposoby wiercenia: z cieczą chłodząco-smarującą, z chłodzeniem gazowym dwutlenkiem węgla oraz bez chłodzenia. Stwierdzono, że chłodzenie z wykorzystaniem cieczą najlepiej wpływa na trwałość narzędzia, jednak chłodzenie gazem również zmniejsza jego zużycie oraz ułatwia odprowadzenie wióra.
