Mission
Educating society is what matters most to us. We explain the obligations brought by the European Green Deal and help meet them with ready solutions: guides, industry services and tools.
Green Deal Institute Foundation
Knowledge that brings order to environmental responsibility.
Educating society is what matters most to us. The European Green Deal brought companies and people new obligations that many do not understand. We help solve them — and we have ready solutions: RozliczeniaSrodowiskowe.pl and OBranże.pl, a network of twelve industry portals.
For business. For the environment. For future generations.

Why we exist
Environmental law is growing faster than companies can follow it.
Waste registers (BDO), emissions reporting (KOBiZE), product fees and extended producer responsibility, the deposit-return system, the EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR), the carbon border adjustment (CBAM), digital product passports, sustainability reporting. Each obligation has its own deadlines, forms and penalties — and most of them apply to small companies too.
Large enterprises have environmental departments and law firms. A workshop, a salon, a restaurant or a small factory usually does not. Information is scattered across legal acts, authority notices and forums, and is often contradictory or out of date.
The Green Deal Institute Foundation was created to close that gap: to gather the knowledge in one place, describe it in plain language, ground it in official sources and make it available to everyone who runs a business.
The Green Deal has set new requirements for all of us. Our mission is education — and ready answers that make it possible to meet them.
Mission, vision, values
Environmental responsibility as an everyday practice of Polish companies.
Vision
Over time we want GDI to become a recognised mark of quality for organisations that responsibly meet environmental requirements and European standards. This is a direction we are building — the Foundation does not certify anyone today.
Who it is for
Owners and managers of companies in many industries, people responsible for environmental matters in organisations, local governments and anyone who wants to understand green regulation.
The values that guide us
- 01
Quality and knowledge
Our core value and the basis of everything we do. We do not allow ourselves mistakes.
- 02
Reliability
We write on the basis of legal acts and official sources. An opinion never pretends to be the law.
- 03
Clarity
We explain difficult subjects in plain language: who, what, by when and how — without jargon or scaremongering.
- 04
Responsibility
We think about the environment and future generations, not only about ticking boxes.
Areas of activity
Six directions set by the Foundation’s statute.
The Foundation’s statute lists twenty-nine goals. In everyday work we pursue them in six areas.
Environmental protection and the circular economy
We promote the circular economy, waste reduction and better recovery and recycling processes.
Education and awareness
We raise environmental awareness among businesses and the public about legal obligations — from waste records to product and packaging records.
Support for businesses
We help companies meet their obligations related to the use of the environment and spread knowledge of Polish and EU climate law.
Digital reporting
We support IT systems for recording, monitoring and reporting the environmental impact of business activity.
Publications and media
We share knowledge free of charge through the Foundation’s services: RozliczeniaSrodowiskowe.pl and the OBranże.pl portal network.
Cooperation and research
The statute provides for cooperation with public administration, local governments and NGOs, and for research and analysis in environmental protection.
The Foundation’s publications
570+ published articles and guides
RozliczeniaSrodowiskowe.pl — a guide to companies’ environmental obligations.
The Foundation’s flagship educational service. Non-commercial, free and grounded in the law. In Polish.
The service describes a company’s obligations step by step: the BDO register and waste records, KOBiZE reports, environmental fees, packaging and extended producer responsibility, emissions and new EU requirements. Every guide states who the obligation applies to, what has to be done, by when, and what happens if it is missed.
- BDO and waste records
- KOBiZE emissions reports
- Environmental fees
- Packaging, EPR and PPWR
- Deadlines and calendar
- New EU rules
Industry portal network
OBranże.pl. Knowledge connects industries.
Every industry has its own rules, deadlines and questions. So instead of one general service, the Foundation publishes twelve portals — each devoted to a single industry. In Polish.
One industry, one portal
The owner of a salon, a restaurant or a workshop finds content about their own business, not about everything at once.
One editorial standard
Every title follows the same rules as RozliczeniaSrodowiskowe.pl: official sources, verification, updates.
Law, practice and growth
Alongside environmental duties the portals cover running a company: costs, staff, sales and technology.

How every Foundation publication is made.

- 02
Verification
Legal facts — deadlines, thresholds, rates, penalties — are checked against the source text before publication.
- 03
Plain language
We write for the business owner, not for the lawyer: who, what, by when and how.
- 04
Updates
When the law changes, we go back to published texts and correct them.
