In recent years, a dynamic increase in environmental pollution with textile waste has been observed. Natural textile waste has great potential for environmental applications. This work identifies potential ways of sustainably managing natural textile waste, which is problematic waste from sheep farming or the cultivation of fibrous plants. On the basis of textile waste, an innovative technology was developed to support water saving and plant vegetation- biodegradable water-absorbing geocomposites (BioWAGs). The major objective of this study was to determine BioWAG effectiveness under field conditions. The paper analyses the effect of BioWAGs on the increments in fresh and dry matter, the development of the root system, and the relative water content (RWC) of selected grass species. The conducted research confirmed the high efficiency of the developed technology. The BioWAGs increased the fresh mass of grass shoots by 230-420% and the root system by 130-200% compared with the control group. The study proved that BioWAGs are a highly effective technology that supports plant vegetation and saves water. Thanks to the reuse of waste materials, the developed technology is compatible with the assumptions of the circular economy and the goals of sustainable development.

“…This challenge requires the development of socio-environmental and socio-energy decision support systems [32;33]. Locally-oriented decision-making models are based on different approaches, such as artificial neural networks [34;35], cellular automata [36] random forest [37], satellite imagery assessment [38], terrestrial laser scanning [39] or probabilistic modelling [40]. Another approach is the GIS-based location modelling [41][42][43], which is a combination of the geoscience and computational tools and can effectively support the sustainable planning process [44;45].…”

The new project of the Polish Energy Policy until 2040 presents a comprehensive vision of modernization of the country's energy system. One of the directions is to develop a diffused energy system based on energy clusters at the local and sub-regional scale. Clusters are expected to increase renewable energy production and consumption mainly in rural areas, as well as improve the quality of life of local communities and ensure sustainable livelihood. Effective delineation and strategic management of energy clusters should be based on evidence-based analyses. Therefore, the aim of the paper is to assess the spatial and temporal diversification of energy use in Poland in connection to socioeconomic drivers from 2004 (Polish access to the European Union) to 2017. The 314 poviat units (county) are examined (NUTS 4 level). Multidimensional data exploration and geovisualisations are performed with use of an innovative location intelligence system of combined geographical information systems (GIS) and business intelligence (BI) software. The paper presents the multivariable data analysis and mapping of selected indicators of: (1) consumption of low-voltage electricity per capita in rural households, (2) population by age and (3) place of residence, (4) residential buildings development, and (5) economic growth reflected in personal income taxes. The obtained results support regional policy makers in energy clusters' location and their strategic management. The results of the study can be used to mitigate disproportions between regions affected by unsustainable suburbanisation, depopulation and ageing society, continuous growth of energy consumption as well as economic inequalities. The study was carried out at the beginning of 2019 as an input for public discussion on ongoing works on the project of the Polish Energy Policy until 2040.

Statistical models of freshet flows are the basis for the design of hydrotechnical structures and for undertaking all and any activities related with flood threat. With regard to the method of data preparation for estimation and to the estimation procedure itself, the methods applied in such situations can be divided into two parts - FFA (Flood Frequency Analysis) and POT (Peak Over Threshold). In this study a comparison of those methods is made, using an original mixture of distributions (FFA) and an original procedure of distribution estimation (POT) for six selected water gauges on the river Odra.
