Environmental law offers many tools to take care of the surrounding landscape and life in it. These include economic tools, from which the paper selects those that can have a positive impact on mitigating the current decline of the insect kingdom. Specific attention is then paid to financial means of supporting beekeepers and thus the conservation of bees, given that they are considered to be the most significant among pollinators.

Apiculture is an integral part of agriculture, and bees take the fourth place with regard to farm animals of economic importance. Their role in pollinating plants is significant: 60 species of farm plants rely on pollinating, as well as 140 garden plants, which is equal to 80 percent of plant species grown in Poland. Economists estimate that the income achieved thanks to the pollinating job of bees stands between 4.1 and 7.4 billion zlotys. That is why it is so important to support this very branch of agriculture. The NIK’s audit covered the activities of the government administration related to effective support for apiculture, and to the implementation of the objectives and tasks included in assistance programmes.

The article shows what role the writing instruments, in particular wax tablets, used by St. Cyril the Philosopher, could play in shaping the material form of Glagolitic writing. In this research approach, writing is treated not only as a system of abstract signs, but also as their factual figure formed by a tool on a writing material. In the case of the Glagolitic alphabet, its creation was therefore both a mental and physical process involving objects such as wax tablets. The ease of engraving the shapes of new letters on a soft surface and the possibility of repeatedly erasing them allowed Cyril to experiment with their forms without consuming valuable parchment. Therefore, this process depended mainly on the material properties of the wax produced by honeybees, which was used to cover the wooden tablets designed for writing with a stylus. In this way, these insects participated in the creation of the material dimension of Slavic writing, on a par with people who took the stick from them, choosing the wax from the hives to further process it. This proves that Cyril did not force the Glagolitic letters formed in his mind onto passive material, but that beeshaped, writing wax affordances actively cooperated in this process.

Conducting apicultural activity in the European Union is currently seriously threatened due to the diverse factors of both socio-economic and environmental nature. The new regulation establishing the common organisation of agricultural markets has provided the opportunity to support the beekeepers primarily through the performance of national apiculture programmes financed by 50% of the EU budget. The aim of this article is to try to assess to what extent the legal instruments provided in this Regulation, firstly, support beekeepers in the European Union and, secondly, provide as an effective way of counteracting to the challenges facing the apiculture sector in the 21st century.

Prowadzenie działalności pszczelarskiej w Unii Europejskiej jest poważnie zagrożone ze względu na zróżnicowane czynniki o zarówno społeczno-gospodarczym, jak i przyrodniczym charakterze. Nowe rozporządzenie ustanawiające wspólną organizację rynków produktów rolnych ustanowiło możliwość udzielenia pomocy podmiotom pracującym w sektorze pszczelarskim głównie przez realizację krajowych programów wsparcia pszczelarstwa, finansowanych w 50% z budżetu unijnego. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest próba oceny, w jakim stopniu instrumenty prawne przewidziane w tym rozporządzeniu wspierają podmioty prowadzące działalność pszczelarską w Unii Europejskiej oraz czy stanowią skuteczną formę przeciwdziałania wyzwaniom zagrażającym funkcjonowaniu sektora pszczelarskiego w XXI w.

Rozwój agroturystyki wiąże się z szeregiem pozytywnych zmian na poziomie gospodarstwa i lokalnej społeczności. Choć agroturystyka w Polsce jest już dość dobrze rozwinięta, istnieje zapotrzebowanie na dywersyfikację ofert gospodarstw agroturystycznych, choćby poprzez wykorzystanie nowych dla agroturystyki gatunków roślin i zwierząt. W opracowaniu wskazano potencjał murarki ogrodowej, Osmia bicornis, w gospodarstwach agroturystycznych, pod kątem przydatności zarówno w gospodarstwie, jak i w zapewnianiu interesujących zadań dla turystów. Skuteczne wykorzystanie murarek jako zapylaczy wymaga zapewnienia im odpowiednich warunków bytowych w gospodarstwie. Wiąże się z tym szereg czynności, które warto przybliżyć turystom, organizując różne pokazy lub aktywności, w których mogą brać udział.

The development of agritourism is associated with numerous positive changes, both on farm and local community level. While agritourism in Poland is already a developed industry, there is a need to diversify the range of experiences available to the participants. One way of achieving that is through including plant and animal species that are underused in agritourism. In the study it is pointed that usefulness of red mason bee, Osmia bicornis, both on a production level, and as a source of interesting activities for tourists. Growers wishing to utilise this potential need to provide and maintain optimal habitats for the bees. This can be seen as a source of informative demonstrations and practical activities for agri-tourists.

The text presents an interpretation of poetical pieces by Bolesław Leśmian and Leopold Staff with the same title: Pszczoły (“The Bees”). What constitutes the departure point for the said analyses is a prolific metaphor theme that has been present in interpretative discourse since Antiquity, namely that of the “bee-poet”, but also identifying those insects with the Death, the mystery of existence, and with the being, all of which facilitates the reading of these two forgotten poems of Polish modernism in terms of the sacred (sacrum) and existence as well as the identity of beings (the latter category is referred to in interpretation via the ship of Theseus paradox).
