Abstract

Innovative ecological transformations are implemented in order to improve the quality and comfort of people’s lives, especially in urban spaces. The ecological awareness of the society has increased in recent years, which resulted in the emergence of a growing number of social initiatives in the field of ecological activities. The main purpose of the article was to conduct a survey in order to examine the environmental awareness of the inhabitants and the need to implement pro-ecological solutions in their area of residence. We analysed the results of research carried out among the residents of ZGM TBS Sp. z o.o. in Częstochowa. The authors’ own research presented in the article was conducted in the first and second quarter of 2021 among the inhabitants of a medium-sized city in the Śląskie Voivodeship. Research was conducted in Częstochowa, which is a specialized Silesian region, is one of the most polluted pollutants in Poland, and is a reserved research stand. The survey was conducted with the use of a questionnaire administered to 400 respondents, the number of whom was considered sufficient to express the opinion of a part of the population on the topic under study. The obtained results of the research prove the respondents’ awareness of the implementation of modern ecological solutions, allowing for a reduction in maintenance costs and unfavourable actions for the natural environment. The results of the study clearly indicate the need to adapt urban spaces to the requirements of its community and the respondents’ willingness to implement ecological solutions. Ecological changes in the management of municipal real estate should be implemented and modernized in accordance with the standards set by modern society.
