Katowice Choose Soft Clean Transport Zone – Older Car Owners Still Allowed In

Katowice has introduced a Clean Transport Zone far less restrictive than Kraków's controversial version, which contributed to the city's mayor being recalled in a referendum. Under Katowice's rules, owners of older cars from the city and the wider metropolitan area can still enter the zone freely. The city opted for a gradual approach without forcing immediate vehicle replacement.

Is Katowice's lenient Clean Transport Zone the right approach?

Psychotherapy training costs up to 100,000 PLN but Poland still lacks regulation

In Poland, anyone can register a business and start seeing patients as a psychotherapist, as the profession remains legally unregulated. Training costs can reach up to 100,000 PLN, yet this does not guarantee proper qualifications. The psychotherapy market is booming, raising serious concerns about patient safety in the absence of oversight.

Should Poland legally regulate the psychotherapy profession?

Poles flee the heat to mountains – bookings up 60% week-on-week

Record heatwaves in Poland are driving a sharp rise in mountain holiday bookings. The number of overnight stays booked in mountain areas rose by 60% week-on-week. Experts point to the growing trend of "coolcation" – the deliberate choice of cooler destinations for summer holidays.

Are mountain holidays a better choice than the seaside during a heatwave?

Switzerland has 25 Gbit internet — why can't the US free market match it?

An analysis argues that the free-market model fails to deliver top-tier internet infrastructure, using Switzerland's 25 Gbit/s broadband as a counterexample to the US approach. Despite a more regulated and publicly supported model, Switzerland outpaces the US significantly in internet speeds. The piece contends that quality broadband requires active state intervention, not just market competition.

Should governments actively invest in internet infrastructure instead of relying on the free market?

Divorce after 60 is becoming increasingly common in Poland

The phenomenon of "silver divorce" — separating after age 60 — is growing rapidly. Couples who have been together for decades increasingly choose to split when closeness, respect and shared goals disappear from the relationship. A long marriage is no longer seen as sufficient reason to stay.

Should age and a long marriage discourage couples from divorcing?

Philosophy belongs to everyone, not just academics, argues Zena Hitz

Philosopher Zena Hitz walked away from an elite academic career to spend three years washing dishes in a monastery. She argues that real philosophical thought belongs to taxi drivers, office clerks and prisoners — everyday people outside academia. In her view, intellectual life has nothing to do with degrees or institutional prestige.

Does genuine philosophical life exist outside of academia?

With Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone universe losing steam, the author argues Hollywood should adapt the works of prolific pulp Western writer Louis L'Amour. The recommended starting point is "The Daybreakers," the first published novel in L'Amour's popular Sackett family saga. L'Amour wrote a vast catalogue of Westerns that have yet to receive a major TV adaptation.
