Abstract
The ISSP Environment data from 1993-2010 were used to show changes in environmental attitudes in four countries of Central and Eastern Europe: the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Bulgaria and Russia. Eight indicators were taken into account in the analysis. The Czech Republic and Slovenia displayed the most similar trends, whereas in Bulgaria and Russia these trends were slightly different. Generally, it can be concluded that pro-environmental attitudes strengthened, especially in the Czech Republic and Slovenia, or at least maintained the same level.
