Crowds stretching for at least a mile marched with banners reading “Free, European Poland,” “European Union yes, PiS no,” referring to the governing Law and Justice (PiS) party. People march on the 34th anniversary of the first democratic elections in postwar Poland, in Warsaw on June 4, 2023. On Sunday, hundreds of buses arrived in Warsaw to bring opposition supporters from across the country.

Lignite contains several times more sulphur and ash, and five times more mercury, than black coal, and provides three times less energy. It also loosened restrictions on selling coal waste, which can be highly polluting, taking Poland back to the days before 2018, when the rules for coal were tightened to fight smog. In September, PiS leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski even told residents of Nowy Targ, the town with the lowest air quality in Poland in 2020, to burn pretty much whatever they wanted. Smog has been intense over the past days and we have a lot of children in need of intensive treatment," she said.

Ascultătorii lui Trójka au votat un cântec de protest al cântărețului și compozitorului Kazik pe primul loc în topuri. Și eu am părăsit Trójka în aprilie, după un deceniu de muncă, și m-am alăturat lui Nowy Świat la scurt timp. Mai mult, Nowy Świat a pregătit și drumul unei noi frecvențe, „357 Radio”, alcătuit din și mai mulți foști jurnaliști de la Polskie Radio. În ceea ce privește melodia lui Kazik, ascultătorii o pot asculta acum atât pe Nowy Świat, cât și pe 357. Jan Niebudek găzduiește emisiunea zilnică a lui Nowy Świat „W środku dnia” („În mijlocul zilei”).
