Vegetation of heat pipelines and participation of invasive species
SVĚTLÍKOVÁ, Petra
Both climate change and plant invasions are phenomenons affecting vegetation structure and its functioning. This study compares vegetation of heat pipelines with surrounding vegetation and investigated survival of thermophilic species in the zone on heat pipelines. Reactions of plants on global warming, including possible invasive behaviour of alien species, are briefly discussed.

Floods in the South Bohemia Region
HRDÝ, Roman
Floods in the South Bohemia Region The first chapter provides general information including the current legislation of the Czech Republic pertinent to crisis management, floods, crisis situation and crisis state definition, and the categorisation of events/disasters, including flood. The important role of urbanism which affects the course and consequences of floods is also discussed. The second part deals with the issue of floods, their origin, classification, floodprotection measures and forecasting as connected with the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute whose functions and procedures are described. The main part presents results of the field survey carried out in the municipalities affected by floods in the South Bohemia. I describe, compare and analyze the last great floods in the years 1997, 2002 and 2006 in the Czech Republic, or the South Bohemia Region. Their intensity, progress, meteorological reasons and damages which they caused are evaluated. I generalize the factors with a direct influence on the extent of damages, including social and economic impact. In conclusion of this part, the danger of floods in the world is also mentioned. In the final part of my thesis, climatologists{\crq} opinions on global warming and the possible causation of this threat with floods are presented. The result is the confirmation or invalidation of the working hypothesis which I set for my thesis.

EU energy policy and its goals
Holoubek, Lukáš ; Ševčíková, Michaela (advisor) ; Ryvolová, Ivana (referee)
The aim of my BA thesis is to answer the question why the European Union is trying to have a common energy policy. I will start with the historical events which influenced the process of the economic integration of Europe. Among the milestones of this integration are the foundation of ECSC, the creation of Euratom, the oil shocks in the seventies, the publication of the White Book concerning the EU energy policy and of the Green Book of the European Committee and the Lisbon Treaty (if ratified). I will focus on the events which are leading Europe to solving the energy issue. I will also tackle the question whether by means of the common foreign policy Europe will gain energy independence of unreliable sources and safety. As a method I will use an analysis of the goals of the energy policies - why did the European Union set these goals and what will reaching these goals bring to the EU states. In the concluding part I will compare the goals of the EU energy policy with the Czech energy policy.

Climate changes - a view of conservatism and environmentalism
Červenková, Martina ; Lisa, Aleš (advisor) ; Prorok, Vladimír (referee)
The topic of this thesis is the issue of global warming in terms of political ideology - conservatism and environmentalism.. For comparison, I chose two representatives - Vaclav Klaus and Al Gore. The aim of this work is to compare ideologically conditioned responses and their political implications. This is illustrated by the example of two personalities of world politics representing both different attitudes toward the issue of global warming and climate change and different ideologies - Václav Klaus and Al Gore. The work is methodologically based on an analysis of ideology of conservatism and environmentalism and on an analysis of empirical knowledge regarding global warming.

Tha influence of iceberg melting on economic situation of Greenland
Chuchlíková, Zuzana ; Ryvolová, Ivana (advisor) ; Petrášek, František (referee)
The aim of this piece is to estimate the future progress of the economic situation of Greenland on the basis of available dates. To show whether the initiation of mining enables to separate Greenland from Denmark, which Greenland has urged for a long time to and which has not been available because of financial reasons. Thanks to comparison to progress of Norway, which depended very much on fishing before oil extraction (as well as Greenland today) we can see the importance of mining in Greenland. Besides mining, iceberg melting has a great influence on accessibility of this island (new naval routes etc.). The point of this piece is to show that climate changes and iceberg melting are not so negative and a threat for all areas of the world. It could also mean important economic assets for particular areas.

Analysis of European CO2-Emission Trading Scheme
Pavlásková, Šárka ; Dostálová, Jiřina (advisor) ; Vojáček, Ondřej (referee)
Bakalářská práce se věnuje problematice obchodování právy vypouštět emise CO2 do ovzduší a dále uvádí principy, na kterých tento systém funguje. Popisuje emisní obchodování jako nástroj ochrany klimatu a Kjótský protokol včetně závazků, které z něho vyplývají. Podrobněji je popsán evropský systém obchodování emisemi CO2, především první fáze zavedení systému do praxe - období 2005-2007. Samostatná část je věnována vývoji v roce 2005 v ČR a také je uveden zajímavý příklad Velké Británie.

Efficiency of proposed solutions of global warming
Jochovičová, Marie ; Čamrová, Lenka (advisor) ; Nováček, Jan (referee)
Problém, kterému bude práce věnována je globální oteplování a s ním související změna klimatu. Příčina tohoto jevu je spatřovánu ve vlivu člověka na planetu a vývoji lidské civilizace. Důsledkem globálního oteplování je změna podnebí a také pohyb mořské hladiny. Bakalářská práce se bude zabývat komparací rozdílných názorů na uvedenou problematiku a současnými nástroji pro řešení problému globálního oteplování. Práce se zaměří na to, zda jsou tyto nástroje účinné a hospodárné, kde lze spatřovat pouze mýty a kde fakta. Zda je globální oteplování hrozbou či ne, jaká opatření podnikají mezinárodní společnosti a zda je jejich práce efektivní.Proč jsou některé země odpůrci daného řešení a jiné naopak jejími příznivci? Jedná se o podstatné argumenty, nebo jen o politické neshody?
