  • Spurring the community involvement in planning - lessons from post-socialist cities

    Publication

    Public participation and community involvement in planning processes is – in general – not a new topic for contemporary planners. But in many parts of the world – including the post-socialist countries like Poland or Russia – we can still face the lack of understanding of importance of proper community involvement in planning and development processes. Situation in these countries is significantly different from both highly-developed...

    Traffic noise is one of the most important environmental problems in densely populated urban areas. At low speeds the tyre/road interaction dominates all other sources. It is anticipated that when electric and hybrid vehicles gain dominance in city traffic, the importance of tyre/road noise will still increase as electric engines are much less noisy than combustion engines. On the other hand, electric and hybrid urban vehicles...

  • Similar concentration of surfactants in rural and urban areas

    Since surfactants are used in various products, they end up in surface and wastewater. Surfactants may therefore impact ecosystems and living organisms. Actually, only few anionic surfactants and some alkylphenols are regulated. There is no comprehensive evaluation of surfactants in the atmosphere, surfaces and waters of areas of increasing anthropic levels. Here, we measured the levels of cationic, anionic and nonionic surfactants...
