Voluntary instruments for environmental protection
Kolářová, Karolína ; Fabšíková, Tereza (advisor) ; Svoboda, Petr (referee)
Voluntary instruments for environmental protection Abstract This diploma thesis focuses on voluntary instruments for environmental protection. The main aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of the most significant voluntary instruments, characterize them, demonstrate their practical applications, and analyse their legal regulation at the national, European, or international level. To adequately introduce the topic, the first part of this thesis is dedicated to environmental protection instruments in general. The second part delves into a group of voluntary instruments, providing a detailed description and historical context of their emergence within environmental policy. Subsequent sections of this thesis focus on selected voluntary instruments, categorized according to their assessed legal and practical relevance, for closer examination. The third part initially addresses voluntary environmental agreements (also known as agreements on protective conditions), which represent a relatively well-known legal concept in the national context and are regulated to varying extents by Law No. 114/1992 Coll., on Nature and Landscape Protection, as amended. The fourth part subsequently analyses two formalized environmental management systems, specifically EMS implemented according to the international standard ISO...

The Voluntary Tools of Environmental Protection
Švehlová, Nina ; Franková, Martina (advisor) ; Žákovská, Karolina (referee)
The diploma thesis is focused on the voluntary tools of environmental protection, those representing a remarkably wide and variable group of tools. The aim of this thesis is to create an integrated and compendious overview of the previously mentioned tools applied not only in the Czech Republic, to outline its basic characteristics, ways of its usage, and its mutual combinations, including the analysis of the legal regulation of the voluntary tools. After the two introductory chapters dedicated to the environmental policy and the system of all tools of environmental protection the following chapter deals with the voluntary tools only, dividing them for the purposes of this diploma thesis into categories of regulatory, informative, and educational tools. Considering the extent of the topic, the author decided on a detailed analysis elaboration of the three chosen tools in the following part of the thesis. In the fourth chapter the diploma theses concentrates on the EMAS according to the Regulation (EC) No 1221/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the voluntary participation by organisations in a Community Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), which is being compared to the second implementation option of Environmental Management System, that is represented by the internationally...

Analysis of economic and environmental effects of detergents' compactation
Gregorová, Martina ; Vojáček, Ondřej (advisor) ; Slavíková, Lenka (referee)
This master thesis studies environmental effects of a detergents' compactation project. The theoretical part describes negative environmental effects of detergents' use and foreign initiatives having successfully led to decrease of these effects. The analytical part evaluates the information campaign focused on customer behavior and detergent dosage through a market survey. Lower detergent consumption is a prerequisite of a decreased negative environmental impact. Market data showing real detergent consumption are compared to expected development. Results of the market survey and the market data analysis show that a change in consumer behavior was not sufficient; and therefore, the compactation project was not successful.
