Consequently, collecting their opinions and trying to get to know the way of their thinking regarding their environmental problem and solving them was an attractive case study for the authors of this article. In this research, the authors found the public\u2019s opinion and attitude regarding environmental situations and issues in Kurdistan Region-Iraq throughout a public questionnaire\/survey. Around 450 people randomly participated from various geographical locations\/cities of the region proportioned to the population rate regarding different demography, gender, age, and academic background. The statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) program was used to analyze their opinion. Also, the cross-tabulation method was used to understand the relationship between two or more variables. Gender, age, and educational background had effects on the participants\u2019 attitudes toward environmental issues. Females, aged from 20 to 30, and Ph.D. degree holders were paying more attention to the environment. Geographically, the participation ratio for the Sulaimani, Erbil, Duhok, Halabja, and Kirkuk Provinces was 28.48 %, 21.95 %, 17.61%, 16.69%, and 15.00 %, respectively. High and low participation levels of the contributors are a reflection of the environmental awareness of the contributors, providing environmentalfacilities for the people, background, and culture of the community, and stability of political, economical, and social issues of the areas. Furthermore, COVID-19 affected the environment, and commonly it had a positive impact on the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key words: <\/strong>environment, Kurdistan Region, Iraq, pollution, COVID-19, geographical distribution<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Zalecany spos\u00f3b cytowania \/ Cite as: <\/strong>Ahmed K.O., Aziz S.Q., Karim P.H., Hussein T.A., Najmalddin S.O., 2022, Contemporary trends toward environmental issues in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, Prace i Studia Geograficzne, 67.1, Wydzia\u0142 Geografii i Studi\u00f3w Regionalnych Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego, Warszawa, 109\u2013130, DOI: 10.48128\/pisg\/2022-67.1-07 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wp\u0142yn\u0119\u0142o: 6.05.2021<br \/>Zaakceptowano: 1.06.2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pisg.wgsr.uw.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PiSG_67.1-07.pdf\">Pobierz ca\u0142y tekst w pdf \/ Get full text (pdf format)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contemporary trends toward environmental issues in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq Wsp\u00f3\u0142czesne tendencje w opiniach o zagadnieniach \u015brodowiskowych w irakijskim Kurdystanie Kaywan Othman AHMED Faculty of Engineering,Tishk International University,Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region (Iraq)E-mail: Kaywan.osman@tiu.edu.iqORCID: 0000-0002-8225-1721 Shuokr Qarani AZIZ College of Engineering,Salahaddin University-Erbil, Erbil,Kurdistan Region (Iraq)E-mail: shuor.aziz@su.edu.krd,shoker71@yahoo.comORCID: 0000-0002-3458-2083 Peshang Hama KARIM Doctoral School of Exact and Natural [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[369],"tags":[777,971,1137,1343,1455,2013],"class_list":["post-2102","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-t-67-z-1","tag-covid-19","tag-environment","tag-geographical-distribution","tag-iraq","tag-kurdistan-region","tag-pollution"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>T.67.1, s. 109-130<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"There are many environmental problems and conducted works in Kurdistan Region.
