Professor of the University of Mining and Metallurgy in Krakow and a researcher of Tatra mesozoic geology (Western Carpathian Mountains), a member of the National Council for Environmental Protection since 1922, in which he implemented the programme of creating national parks on the Polish-Czechoslovakian border (in the Tatra Mountains, the Pieniny Mountains and Babia Góra). A core of tourism and travelogue societies as well as professors from Prague (including: Karel Domin and Radim Kett ner) joined the campaign for the future parks. Parks in the region were created after World War II. The destruction of the environment between 1939-45 became the reasons for Goetl’s att empts to organise campaigns for the protection of natural resources (forests, minerals). Later, he took eff orts for complex environmental protection (also: water, air, soil and even health issues). In consequence, he prepared the bases for a new discipline referred to as environmental science (Article Environmental science - the science of the protection of the environment and its resources, 1966). With time, he began dealing with issues of the permanent use of natural resources as well as issues connected with management techniques in the natural and social environment (Article Environmental science, 1971). He was the most recognised activist alongside botanist Władysław Szafer (1886–1970), an activist on environmental protection in its classic, conservative current. He expanded the profi le of interests with an issue, as the result of which in 1956, the International Union for Conservation of Nature added the following its words to its name: „and Natural Resources”.

In the years 1795-1918 the Polish territory was occupied by Austria, Prussia and Russia. Two scientific institutions in Austrian annexed land (Galicia): Academy of Arts and Sciences (founded in 1873) and Cracow University, tended to protect Polish scientists, particularly in Russia. One of them was Julian Talko-Hryncewicz (1850–1936). He studied medicine in St. Petersburg and Kiev (Russia) and anthropology in Paris. As practicing doctor he started to carry out archaeological and anthropological studies on Scythians on the left side of the Dnieper river. In the years 1892–1907 Talko-Hryncewicz was continuing his studies on Siberian nations, forming in Troitskochavsk a center of scientific studies. Their results he was publishing in Russian periodicals and in the publications of the Academy of Arts and Sciences in Cracow. In the years 1908–1936 Talko-Hryncewicz was professor of anthropology of the Jagellonian University, forming a center of studies on the population and country-folk of Cracow and the Carpathians. They are documented by several monographs (as e.g. Contemporaneous Cracovians. Anthropologic study, 1927) and in his memoirs. Higher schools of Austrian annexed land (in Lvov and Cracow) were employing numerous Poles, carrying out scientific investigations in Russia annexed land and in Russia. Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences was protecting them morally and materially, particularly by publishing their papers and by buying exhibition goods for its museums.
