Greenpeace activists protest at the Ministry of the Environment in Poland, demanding better protection of the Bialowieza forest (in Polish Puszcza Bialowieska), one of the last and largest forest ecosystems in near natural state, which once spread across the European Plain. Every year the timber industry cuts about 100.000 m3 of trees in this forest. Greenpeace demands to reduce this amount to 30.000 m3, an amounts which could fulfill the needs of the local population.
