The smog phenomenon and its associated health consequences have now taken center stage in many societies, including Poland. In addition to the prevention of smog formation, the question arises of what impact it may have on urban planning and architectural design. In this article, I attempt to answer the question of what the relationship may be between the fact of smog formation, especially in cities, and the planning and design of sports facilities.

In particular, they affected single-person households, which until March 2020 paid PLN 10 per month (e.g., in Ursynów and Ochota districts) – now PLN 65, and PLN 94 per month in single-family buildings.

The Kurpie region is among the most interesting ethnographic regions of Poland, with the center of the original, well-preserved and carefully cultivated folk culture of the Kurpie [ethnographic group of the Polish population]. The image of the Kurpie village resulted from centuries of human activity. Over the centuries, transformations of the landscape occurred. Activities that gave the area a modern appearance were based on adaptation of the natural environment for cultivation of land and gradual establishment of human settlements.
