ABSTRACT
This paper uses the most appropriate measures and data sources to map the likely growth delinking
of Polish economy for the period 1990-2016. Evidences of green growth exist and were assessed both
qualitatively and quantitatively. This paper also examines the likely policy implications by means
of cross-correlation analysis. The results indicate that Poland can be conceptualized as a successful
paradigm prescribed by the ecological modernization theory since growth is not associated with human
pressure on natural resources and does not produce detrimental environmental impacts.
