Major cities spend over PLN 2.5 bln a year to protect environment

Polish major cities spend more than PLN 2.5 billion per year to protect the environment. However, increasing budgets will not solve the problem of poor air quality, PwC stated in a report. PwC experts emphasize the importance of citizens education about minimizing the negative impact on the environment. For example, in Poland there is no incentive to buy cars that meet "modern standards," they said. According to the environmentally friendly transport index developed by PwC, Warsaw has the best result. The above average result is achieved by Rzeszów, Wrocław, Kraków, and Łódź. The lowest index value is in turn registered in Katowice.
