The subject of the study is to analyze the phenomena threatening the rural areas. The study focused mainly on floods, landslides and drought. The aim of this article is to determine the impact of these risks on space management and to demonstrate how the community in the selected area refer to them in planning documents. The article analyzes the programs, studies, plans and strategies for space management with regard to these events. The analysis showed that not all municipalities in a similar way in addressing the threats. And strategic planning documents do not prohibit development in areas at risk, only they determine that the investment risk borne by the investor. In case of drought analyzed the community to a very small extent, they refer to this phenomenon - although the task in terms of unblocking irrigation ditches and restoration of watercourses exist in each of the surveyed municipalities. In the era of climate change and the occurrence of extreme weather update planning documents and strategic issues of the occurrence and threat protection they are indeed the duty, since they increase safety of life, work and inverter rural areas. ...
The issue of climate change and as a consequence of these changes in extreme weather events are currently the subject of many studies and actions of governments in dealing with phenomena occurring. Rural areas and production takes place in these areas in Poland depends mainly on natural weather conditions, it causes that the farmers are often large financial losses because of extreme weather. Insurance packages offered by the company are expensive, so farmers use them piecemeal, or not at all. The article about the financial losses that took place in 2010-2014 in the 60 municipalities of the Warmia and Mazur Region. In relation to each municipality collected 20 geo-information describing spatial conditions, environmental and economic (financial losses). By using the method of moving backward regression and correlation analysis were obtained four independent variables affecting the size of the resulting losses. These include: surface on which the loss occurred, the surface of which is used for agriculture - divided on plowed land and meadows and pastures, and the rate of water conditions. Last variable speaks of the capacity of soil to accumulate water, thus is important in times of small amounts of rainwater. The study exacerbate the problems associated with ongoing ...
