Primary issue

Biolowieza Forest, spread over an area of 1,500 sq km and lying in Poland and Belarus, is threatned by continued logging on the Polish side. This March, a citizen's committee called upon the Parliament to declare it a national park and stop felling, failing which the committee will launch a grassroots struggle. 12jav.net12jav.net
