The European Union International Organization for Standardization management system for the environment (ISO 14001) is established by European Commission Regulation 1221/2009. This legislates a voluntary system where organizations can register in a community eco-management and audit scheme. In the literature, this standard is recognized as an instrument of international environmental protection law, introduced by soft law regulations. ISO 14001 has been implemented by many global and European organizations, and it strives to improve the quality of their environmental resources. It was considered that the ISO 14001 eco-management and audit scheme enforced protection of environment in EU countries by imposing the obligation to implement appropriate legal regulations in this area. This article aims is determine what legal solutions in chosen UE countries enable the effective implementation of ISO 14001 and what positive effects it has on the state of the environment in these countries. The results demonstrated that the number of certified organizations is increasing despite the many difficulties and costs of implementing and organizing required environmental protection areas. The implementation of ISO 14001 was described using the example of Poland and Italy compared to other EU countries. The uptake identifies improved environmental quality, and this is confirmed by indicators of decreasing gas emissions and increasing waste recycling which improve global air, soil and water quality. The higher implementation index of the ISO 14001 standard in Italy translates into higher environmental quality indicators in this country than in Poland.

In the paper we propose a practical application of the path goal programming approach, by which we understand a goal programming approach with goals being not numbers, but paths in networks. This method, with goal paths corresponding to desired schedules of environmental investment implementation, is used for the environmental decision-making in a selected company. The company has to introduce some investments aimed at natural resources reduction. However, not all the required investments can be realized in one budgeting period, because of budget constraints. The desired compromise schedule of investment realization has to be worked out. This schedule becomes the goal. The path goal programming method helps to reduce the undesired deviations from the goal schedule.

Państwa członkowskie Unii Europejskiej (UE) postanowiły, że Unia będzie działać na rzecz trwałego rozwoju Europy. Jego podstawą są: zrównoważony wzrost gospodarczy i stabilność cen, społeczna gospodarka rynkowa o wysokiej konkurencyjności, zmierzająca do pełnego zatrudnienia i postępu społecznego oraz wysoki poziom ochrony i poprawy jakości środowiska. Jest to ambitny cel wdrożenia idei zrównoważonego rozwoju do polityki rozwoju gospodarczo-ekonomicznego Unii. O wadze i randze tego podejścia w zjednoczonej Europie świadczy fakt, iż zostało ono wpisane do traktatu o UE (art. 3 ust. 3). Do opracowywania i realizacji skutecznej polityki, uwzględniającej zrównoważony rozwój, niezbędne są rzetelne informacje o stanie środowiska oraz o podstawowych tendencjach i czynnikach zmian zachodzących w środowisku. Decyzja 1600/2002/WE Parlamentu Europejskiego i Rady z 22 lipca 2002 r., ustanawiająca szósty wspólnotowy ramowy program działań w zakresie środowiska naturalnego2, była podstawą do podjęcia prac nad opracowaniem odpowiednich narzędzi pozwalających na lepsze przedstawienie wpływu działalności gospodarczej na środowisko. Tymi narzędziami stały się rachunki ekonomiczne środowiska, będące rachunkami satelitarnymi w stosunku do Systemu Rachunków Narodowych (SNA). (fragment tekstu)

The article contains an overview of the work on the implementation of the European Environmental Economic Accounts (EEEA), which are seen as instruments to monitor the pressure exerted by the economy on the environment as well as study how to reduce it. The issues on EEEA have been regulated by Regulation (EU) No. 691/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 July 2011 on European Environmental Economic Accounts. This Regulation establishes a common framework for the collection, compilation, transmission and evaluation of EEEA to set up environmental economic accounts as satellite accounts to ESA'95. It provides that the environmental accounts are grouped into modules. This will allow the introduction of additional modules without interfering with the basic provisions of the Regulation. The article describes the current scope of work and the development plan of EEEA in Poland. (original abstract)
