The incidence of low birthweight was examined among 6794 newborns in 4 towns in the industrial region of Upper Silesian: Świętochłowice, Bytom, Zabrze and Chorzów. Ecological disaster has caused an increasing number of infants with birthweight below 2500 g in the most polluted towns. In Chorzów, in the most polluted part of the town, mean body weight decreased (3015g) in comparison with mean body weight in less polluted districts (3087 g and 3102 g). Low birthweight is one of the most important health indicators of a population affected by environmental pollution. The second negative impact connected with very high pollution is the high incidence of congenital defects and childrens' morbidity rate as the same as disturbed physical and psychological development.

Some alien woody species used in commercial forestry become invasive and, as invaders, cause major problems in natural and semi-natural ecosystems. However, the deliberate introduction of aliens can bring unintended negative changes also within areas of their cultivation. This paper presents the effects of the intentional introduction of the North-American Quercus rubra in European mixed Scots pine-Pedunculate oak forests (POFs): Querco roboris-Pinetum (W. Mat. 1981) J. Mat. 1988. Phytosociological data from field research combined with GIS data analysis of the current distribution of Northern Red oak in the studied habitat were used to determine the composition and structure of forest communities in plots with and without Q. rubra participation. The results show that Q. rubra significantly reduces native species richness and abundance, both in old-growth and in secondary (post-agricultural) forests. Not one resident vascular plant benefits from the introduction of Northern Red oak and only a few are able to tolerate its co-occurrence. The natural restocking of all native woody species is also strongly limited by this alien tree. The introduction of Northern Red oak significantly limits the environmental functions of the POF ecosystem and weakens its economic and social aspects. However, its further cultivation is justified from an economic point of view, as the essential function of the studied forests is commercial timber production, and the introduction of this fast growing alien tree supports the provisioning ecosystem services. A clear description of the level of trade-off between the accepted negative and positive effects of the introduction of Q. rubra on forest ecosystem services requires further interdisciplinary studies.

The paper presents a growing threat to the natural environment caused by the avalanche growth in the number of trucks and cars within the urban areas and beyond their borders. Based on the example of the Szczecin agglomeration - located at the crossroads of the east-west and north-south transit routes - selected harmful components associated with the use of trucks and their negative impact on the human lives and functioning of the ecosystem in Poland have been discussed.

Jaworzyna Mountain forests of the law have granted protected status as a spa forests and forests in protected zones around the spas, as well as protective forests intakes and sources of water. In addition, forests are located in the Natura 2000 site "Popradzka refuge" and the Poprad Landscape Park. As part of the 24 sample plots laid out. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of runs No. I, II and IV of the ski station Jaworzyna Krynicka SA of the surrounding stand. Performed on them, inter alia, assess damage to trees, an assessment of the X-rays of trees, an assessment of the damage to the tree canopy deciduous beech mainly by Roloff classification It was noticed a significant: change in the number of trees in the areas of research; changes in the species composition; large variation in the abundance of forest stands; increase in X-ray conifer crowns; an increase in damage to the crowns of beech in all areas of research; — inventoried damage is primarily shallow wounds and abrasion bark — wounds on trees can also be a place of infection fungal pathogens; Edges of slopes and point taken for the gondola should be reforested as soon as possible to create a forest edge.
