Prawo ochrony środowiska jako ustawa daninowa

Abstract

The paper aims to show that the Polish Environmental Law is an act that imposes public imposts to protect Poland’s natural environment. This act features certain specific qualities and legal solutions. The author has formulated a claim that some of the provisions concerning the fees for the use of the natural environment and the emissions surcharge breach the constitutional standards of exclusivity of an impost act, of the right to predictable taxation, decent legislation, and a democratic state of law.
