While Poland does release a large amount of pollution, it is actually not considered one of the biggest polluters in the world.

The United Nations lists Poland as the 22nd most polluted country.

The top 3 polluted countries are:

  1. China
  2. United States
  3. Russia

Poland is an industrial and agricultural country that has a lot of factories and processing plants, contributing to pollution.

Pollution in Poland is mainly caused by:

  • Excessive mining and over-mining
  • Excessive sulphur dioxide from excessive metal-works
  • Carbon monoxide from industrial factories
  • Benzine from fuels
  • Various chemicals from metalworks leaking into water sources
