We are pleased to present you with the second edition of the publication entitled Green Economy Indicators in Poland 2017, which is a result of a cooperation of the Statistical Office in Białystok with the Central Statistical Office.

Green economy, as the authors of this publication see it, is such economy that supports economic growth and development while simultaneously maintaining access to natural capital and ecosystem services, which, in turn, affect human well-being. This economy is inextricably connected with the concept of sustainable development through efficient achievement of its objectives.
