The aim of this article is the analysis of the selected factors influencing the allocation of investment outlays (focusing on environment protection) in Poland. The primary hypothesis assumed that the allocation depends on: expected benefits caused by new investments, duties implicated by EU law, quality of the environment. The review of mentioned factors indicated that the first two related to benefits and duties imposed by EU law were not really important. Also the correlation between quality of environment and amount of investment was relatively strong only for national sources of the capital. There was no correlation at all between the environment quality and preliminary allocation of EU funds.

Protection of the natural environment is one of the fundamental problems of the contemporary world. The major threats of the 21st century include global warming, water pollution and decreasing water resources, deforestation and loss of biological diversity. Many international organizations engage in counteracting the effects of those threats and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) plays and important role in this respect. The organization is an agenda of the UN, founded in 1972 to monitor the state of the natural environment worldwide and to identify problems that require international cooperation. Furthermore, it assists in the codification of the international law for natural environment conservation and recommends implementation of national environmental policies by governments in various countries. The article also presents the genesis and structure of the organization and the range of its activities. Special emphasis is placed on the role of the UNEP as administrator of the Secretariat of the United Nations Convention on Climate Change. This is followed by a discussion of the results of the 14th Conference of Parties to the Convention that took place in Poznan from 1 to 12 December 2008.

Apart from spatial and geographical conditions, technical infrastructure is listed as one of the most important factors stimulating economic and social growth of rural areas. Rural areas with sewage systems are very attractive in economic terms. Regulated waste management directly increases their value. However, it should mostly contribute to improving the condition of the environment. The article discusses issues related to implementing sewage systems in rural areas against a legal, technical and economic background of environment protection.

As much as can be expected scientific and exact approach in handling of the technical problems, the same it should be obvious in solving environmental problems too. However, in handling the social problems there are sometimes 'non-professional' procedures, with strong accent of subjective decisions. This issue is bold not only on the 'high-level politics' but also in administration, which is very often non-adequately slow and cumbrous. The contribution constitutes one of the possible approaches to the support of the decision making processes within creating and protection of the environment.

The article is aimed at analyzing the level of advancement of the co-operation of Poland with individual non-European Union countries in the field of environment protection and its influence on the improvement of environmental standards and pro-ecological modernization of the Polish economy. The resources are unpublished materials of the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Economy referring to bilateral agreements between Poland and its foreign partners in the above-mentioned field and the results of that co-operation, as well as information made available by the Polish National Energy Conservation Agency. The conducted analysis shows that thanks to the substantial financial and technological support provided by such countries as Norway, Switzerland and Japan our country was given a unique chance to modernize the economy and maintain high environmental standards not only as a beneficiary of that aid but also as a country deepening neighborhood co-operation with Russia and Ukraine, and sharing its experiences with other partners, especially Moldova and Iran.

Ecoeducation has grown into a field of science by now, with an expanding professional and legal background. By means of legalisation, it reaches education, pedagogy and off-school training. Ecoeducation, along with green pedagogy as an important part of it, might begin, de iure, in kindergarten, and is supposed to be ended, de facto, at the end of a lifelong learning. A proper professional, social and legal normative framework is needed for this process. Ecoeducation has come from international public law, and goes onto the level of practice and individual reality. Intercompatibility is necessitated for a norm-adequate cooperation among states and state-forming factors. In lack of it, ecoeducation cannot be effective enough.

Ecoreligiosity expresses a new kind of religiosity, professing the spirituality of the protection of the environment and that of nature. The true environmental religion aims at saving and preserving the built and natural environment, contrary to the sects that by means of 'green washing', only bring about wealth for the leaders of the pyramid organization, at the cost of the members of the sect. The psychic convincing lets the naive, feeble and defenceless victims down by fraudulent 'green thinking', and the victims spot, as a rule, only later what the real motives of cheating environmentalism have been. Environment protection appears in the religious policy of the historical churches as well, though the latter being a really positive phenomenon. The omnipresence of environmentalism also meets the field of religious faith. As far as it is reasonable, environmental faith may be advantageous, even lucrative. In this case, lucrativeness does not mean money-making for the sake of sect leaders, rather this sort of lucrativeness preserves values of the nature for the whole society. Sects and ecosects (i.e. environmental sects) are surrounded by facts and myths alike. Case law and the results of empirical theology suggest that we should be careful about less known or suspiciously too much known spiritual movements. We also can find the negative signs of sect danger at our workplace, by shopping or at other places of common life. We have to recognize it only. In a wider sense of the word, it is important to recognize it in due time, when an organization is just on the way to becoming a sect or an ecosect.

The study gives an analysis of the bringing about of norms relating to the protection of the environment. These norms are not necessarily acts of law. Other kinds of norms might also have effect on the protection of the environment: legal, political, ethical, religious, scientific, etc. norms. The relationship between the special sorts of environmental norms stands on the basis of every human environmentalist activity. Sometimes facts precede law, sometimes it is on the contrary. Scientific norms may also influence the forming of legal and other environmental rules. Social auto-regulation is emphasized, and light is shed on the problems caused by the mere guise of environmental normativity. It is stated that sustainable development is concomitant with the normative evolution.

THE SOCIAL FUNCTION OF THE 'IUS AD VITAM' AND OF THE 'IUS AD SANITATEM' (A ius ad vitam es a ius ad sanitatem tarsadalmi funkcioja)

The study deals with the role of the right to health and that of the right to life in the society. The study is about the function filled, ab ovo, by these two human rights, and about that developed by the inhabitants of the sociosphere in the course of human history. The law-forming activity of the sociosphere's inhabitants, so, first of all that of the mankind, has strongly modified the existence and modus of these two basic rights. As for the 'ius ad vitam' and the 'ius ad sanitatem', our society provides a more or less 'developed' and 'western-type' attitude. However, some digressions show up. All these follow from Hungary's special geopolitical situation, historical background and from the specific characteristics of our society. Life and health are fundamental values, which should not be impaired. Amending these belongs to one of the goals of every democratic government, since society and public administration can be sustained only in synergy with each other. Relativisation of absolute rights solicits a sincere pre-consideration and preparation. The situation of life and health protection should not depend on political or other spiritual tendencies. In the Hungarian (and, more broadly, in the 'western') public thinking, exclusively those views might find place, which do not question the right to life and the right to the highest level of physical and mental health for the individuals and the community. This is to be alpha and omega in every democratic social structure.
