The aim of the panel is to discuss a timeline of actions that should be taken by local governments and entrepreneurs in order to systemically restore urban ecosystems as a means to preserve the GREEN SILESIA paradigm. Topics to be discussed will include:
- – Comprehensive identification of the natural inanimate and animate resources of Silesia,
- – Ways to inventorise the region’s inanimate and animate resources,
- – Monitoring the dynamic processes of transition of the flora and fauna ecosystems, hydrogeology and biosphere of the Region,
- Integration of databases on the distribution and abundance of Silesia’s inanimate and animate natural resources.
Głównym zadaniem toczonych dyskusji jest integracja środowiska naukowego, samorządowego i przedsiębiorców wokół wyzwań cywilizacyjnych Regionu w którym zwały skały płonnej jako odpady przemysłu wydobywczego od ponad stu lat są stałym elementem krajobrazu Śląska.
