Abstract
The aim of the study is to characterize engagement in cooperation with the entities in the area within
pro-environmental initiatives, as declared by entrepreneurs from valuable natural areas of the Lublin
province, and to present assessments of the activity of local authorities in this regard, as formulated by the
entrepreneurs. The results showed little activity of the entrepreneurs themselves and above-average activity
assessments for local authorities in the study area. What is more, natural environment preciousness was not
associated with increased activity of enterprises in the area of cooperation with entities of the area and the
increased activity, as perceived by the entrepreneurs, of local authorities in taking up pro-environmental
initiatives. The study was developed within the framework of the research project No. 2011/01/D/HS4/03927
entitled “Environmental Conditions and Factors of Economic Functions Development in Valuable Natural
Areas of the Lublin Province” funded by the National Science Centre.
