High-speed rail (HSR) can lead to a renewed advantage of rail over road and air in intercity passenger transport. Therefore, the creation of a coherent network of high-speed rail lines in Poland and Mazovia makes sense, and the first step in this direction should be the development of a targeted, comprehensive program for the construction of these lines. Meanwhile, the findings of the plans for the construction of HSR in the Mazovia region to date are fragmentary, and moreover, controversial on many points.

Val d’Europe is a new city created in the Paris region as a result of a public-private partnership between the French State and Euro Disney Associées in 1987. The city, envisioned with a target population of 60,000, currently has a population of 35,000, and is located as the last in a 40-kilometer-long band of the linear city of Marne-la-Vallée, a satellite of Paris. The city was founded as a base for Europe’s largest tourist complex, Euro Disney, welcoming 15,000,000 visitors a year, but has gradually become a self-sufficient, multifunctional organization.

Kurpiowszczyzna is one of the most interesting ethnographic regions, with a center of original, well-preserved and carefully cultivated Kurpie folk culture. The image of the Kurpie village is the result of centuries of human activity. Over the centuries there have been transformations of the landscape, based on the adaptation of the natural environment to cultivate the land and the gradual establishment of human settlements, which have given the modern image.

This article is the next in a series of articles on waste management and the third relating to municipal waste management fees paid by Warsaw residents. These fees have changed for the third time since 2020. Each change is a de facto increase in them and discriminates against some large group of our society.

Researchers are sounding the alarm that the state of the environment is deteriorating year by year. A survey by the KANTAR institute for the Federation of Polish Food Banks shows that 34% of Poles admit that they have happened to throw away food. This is quite a high percentage. Among the most frequently thrown away products, the surveyed Poles indicate, in order, bread, cold cuts, vegetables, fruits and dairy products. The most common reason for wasting food is missing the expiration date.
