This diploma thesis deals with the changes of toll taxes and their implication in the Czech Republic between years 2007 -- 2015. The research was done using a dynamic regression analysis of monthly data provided by the web portal MYTO CZ. Based on the available data it was shown that the increase in average prices of toll transactions of ecologically unfavorable EURO groups leads to a decline in the share of total realized transactions. As a result carriers are most likely motivated to vehicle fleet renewal, which is reflected in the increase in the share of cars with lower environmental load.

Tato diplomová práce se zaměřuje na aplikaci koncepce udržitelného rozvoje ve firmě Volkswagen Slovakia na posílení její konkurenceschopnosti. Automobilová společnost je analyzována jako hráč v odvětví udržitelné mobility a její současná strategie je zhodnocena v zmyslu udržitelnosti. Na základě nejrelevantnějších aspektů analytické části je navržena řada doporučení, které by měli podpořit působení firmy v oblasti výroby elektrických vozidel a poskytování transportních služeb a které by měli přispět k dosažení eko-konkurenční výhody v daném odvětví.

This work deals with ecological design and appraisal of quality of the electronic devices throughout their life cycle. This area known worldwide as Eco-Design, becomes an integral part of all electro technical productions. This work brings out not only conception of the Eco-Design, but also next related areas with the aim to decrease limitation of negative impact on environment. At the end of the work is compared and summarized the ecological evaluation of the concrete product types.

This thesis is oriented on use of nature in art education. It consists of teortical and practial part. Theoretcial part describes possibiliteis of using nature and natural materials in art education in relationship with environmental education, history of art and art education in relationship with nature as inspiration or source of material. Practical part consits of two guidelines. The first one is focused on work with natural materials directly in nature. The second one is sectioned into another four guidelines inspirated by seasons of the year. Intention of this thesis is to point to the value of the nature in art education and offer number of possibiliteis how to use this topic. The main asset of this thesis is in summarizing knowledge about nature in relationship to art education and suggestions for activities inspirated by nature or realized directly in nature.

For years considered pristine, glacial ecosystems are attracting more attention of biologists from various branches in last decades. Moreover, they are currently considered to be ecosystems forming the coldest biome on the Earth. The life on glaciers ranges from viruses and bacteria to highest consumers such as few groups of microinvertebrates. The most common are tardigrades (phylum Tardigrada) and rotifers (phylum Rotifera) which inhabit cryoconite holes on the glacial surface. Several studies highlight the importance of the role of these consumers. However, due to the dominance of prokaryotes on the glacial surface, these microinvertebrates are usually out of the major scope of most studies aiming at biological processes. The present study shows pioneering results on the isotopic composition of tardigrades and rotifers, which are the top consumers in cryoconite ecosystems, and is a foundation for the exploration of trophic pathways and interactions within cryoconite holes using elemental and stable isotopic analyses. It also presents information about the species composition of tardigrades and rotifers on different glaciers and in different parts of the ablation zone. We identified 5 species of tardigrades (Hypsibius sp., Hypsibius cf. dujardini, Pilatobius sp., Isohypsibius sp. and Cryoconicus...

The thesis deals with the issue of dispersed greenery, its division and function in the landscape. By the research method has been characterized 6 selected localities. The coefficient of ecological stability and its changes since 1990 has been calculated for selected localities and then compared by the comparative method. The main aim was to map the state and changes of dispersed greenery (mainly woody plants) along the railway tracks. The condition of greenery along railway tracks and its unkeep was evaluated and compared, which is primarily aimed at keeping the greenery in a condition ensuring safety and continuity of the rail traffic. An integral part of the thesis is a proposal of measures for greenery along the tracks.

The Diploma thesis researches the existence of relationship between the age of vehicle park and the level of economy. The research is based on the influence of the age of the vehicle park and its impact on the economy growth and development in the countries of European Union. The impact is examined by one-dimensional regression analysis and by panel analysis. The independent variable is the age of vehicle park and the dependent variable is GDP, HDI, Ecological footprint and carbon dioxide emissions. The European Union countries are divided into groups by using cluster analysis.

This diploma thesis provides a detailed picture of the six Czech organic farms - six Czech organic farmers, who work in different locations in the Czech Republic. It focuses on the motivation for nonconventional methods of agriculture, tells the story of their business, explores and compares the different aspects that may play an important role in bringing holistic picture of Czech organic farming after 1989. Keywords Organic farming, biodynamic agriculture, organic farm, organic farmer, motivation

The diploma thesis deals with the use of the relationship between human and nature in social work. The theoretical part deals with the anthropological foundations of this relationship, describes the historical evolution of nature's effects on humans and theoretical approaches to the effects of the environment. It deals with individual influences of the environment and nature on human in the context of the quality of life of postmaterialist society. The second part describes the methods using the relationship between man and nature in social work in relation to current models of social work. The application and use of these methods is a current phenomenon in the Czech environment. Therefore, specific therapeutic approaches used in specific facilities when working with clients and patients are presented below. These are mainly the elderly, people with disabilities and disadvantages, at-risk youth, drug addicts. Of the therapeutic approaches, the work focuses mainly on zootherapy, social agriculture and garden therapy.

The theme of my thesis deals with a winery near to the village Strachotín next to the Protected Landscape Area Pálava. It focuses, in particular, on the design of this object which serves not only to processing and producing of wine but also for degustation followed by the tour of wine production. Another part of my thesis is the design of accommodation, restaurant and wellness center by the means of using low-energy buildings, their various construction systems and natural materials. The whole conception is based on the overall potential of the territory, using the local sources and supporting the economic and social development of the area.
