| Abstract |
Rapidly advancing climate change and environmental degradation are nowadays the key challenges of the modern world and, therefore, a threat to Europe. According to the European Green Deal, by 2050, European Union countries will achieve zero net greenhouse gas emissions, which is directly connected with significantly reducing or completely stopping the use of fossil fuels for energy purposes. Poland, and especially the inhabitants of Silesia, must face a change concerning their cultural heritage and their way of life. The aim of this article is to answer the question of whether the inhabitants of the Silesian agglomeration are ready to resign from coal-based energy. Are they aware of the changes in their closest environment related to decarbonisation. This article presents the results of a survey carried out in order to identify the attitude of Silesian cities' inhabitants towards decarbonisation. The study was carried out by means of an online survey using Google Forms and was addressed to the inhabitants of cities in the central part of the Silesian Voivodeship. |
