But widespread, illegal logging is destroying both the environment and peoples lives, amid allegations of corruption and file and sickens those. Working to defend this remarkable landscape. Weve been to investigate. Rumania is blessed with the most precious forests in your but with the rise of illegal logging, its getting dangerous in these vast ancient woodlands. Reportedly, the figures of stone, 6 forest rangers moved to last autumn in length, and a further 650 attacked with axes. None of them. Dr. Gong violence and then killing with the bulls. The copay themes was 70 percent of europes virgin. Forest is funny and all the scene of a desperate bustle between bosses being dubbed the timber muffy and those risking their lives to protect this precious environment. If one tries to mess up with their interest for a small fee, you get in trouble and you can even die. Remain use forests disappearing, finest trees, both ancient and young, harvested. Thats an astonishing right. Some of which is just in for a cheap furniture in western europe. Overhaul for all logging. It is illegal. The contrary road so full of trucks carrying timber 24 hours a day, 7 days, a week. We have joined agent green to remain n. G. A. , who are trucking one such a lorry. There is no one called for the last 72 hours license by the transport. Is anita called want to which we just paid up on. It is coming and they would organize our old block. Well, here was the truck appears to be carrying substantially more timber than had been declared. If we look at the volume of the missing would problem and forest illegally, were talking about 20000000 cubic meters by the author would be if they only catch one person. So i know many are basically you have 99 births and chances to steal the wood and get away with it but wants it stay remain years old growth forests have barely changed since then. And the only say, there are a very simple window and the time is passed by their examples of how nature a process shape an ecosystem that its untouched by humans. Although forests have a spectacular composition, its this a mix of old trees and young trees creates a mosaic of habitats that is there for a very rich biodiversity. Over half of the population of bears, weve seen the mania. About 40 percent of the world population. We have links, we have wild cats. For us are off in pin valley based. I think value the inspirational value of the spiritual value of these forests they are fragile and they need to be protected. The biggest player in remaining years forestry business is wrong silver, which is staging and controls about 48 percent of remaining is woodlands. It has been plagued with scandals. Sweet deal that they were little funny things with the pond starts either when they sell the product, which is wood or when they buy services. So its the operable problem and theres corruption inside the tedward. Teagan is wrong. So this newly appointed director having run their operations in iraq, canty in the east of rumania for the last decade on paper. Hes the most powerful forest in the country. We asked him about claims that there is corruption in rome, silva know who could have parts of assets of up the expense account on a lot of means they arent the lego, but from the performer on the financial problems of their awful room. So that ministers looking and hunting as well as Nature Conservation on the face of it, a conflict of interests dont. They know that i said. 2 efik the war or she had said watch opera, but the yacht of the bug. What dock might be a feint that he, if you got to a door would for rome sober for 10 years. She was supposed to monitor impacts on the forests of the so Many National parks. But the most she drew attention to the go mudding, the worse it became for her. The fear part about us open up a human being would a cat about get on one of the thieves ordained a great thought, doubtful, but ill drop the law to cut it back. I dont know that i got it. Things came to a head when theodore was awarded to a remote part of the forest by the regional director. But luckily, at the last minute, the driver had a change of heart. If a Sports Company meets all of these, i wonder nez seen what up . She thought when the valar brought the rest of the chicken or met what he thought are some nods, but i absolutely knew something was going to support that shot too. She might be uneconomic, thought, ill bet you thought to keep them on. She thought it was what im for a column phantom clutch of time does not support ted or has no day that they meant to kill the p. R. That because when he left the car with the idea that locke or ledge are the time, i mean the question of view of the cut at present bronte, i dont see a box and not tell us more that he not its wouldnt have been the 1st time the troublesome work is it drums over and be done with in the forests. This is lee mt milligan. Melissa has always lived nature and his family work after the stray dogs, a forest ranger for 30 years. Blitzer refused to get involved in the commode, being the stance which he says put him at all to beat his superiors at rome. Super, who he says, threatened him. I mean, certainly more d. N. A. Fell in ship with me. Shari sprezzatura, in 2018, milicz, it was ambushed in the forest beaten and left for dead. He showed us the hospital reports. Thank god, it is ripe issues for a lot these growing your children, but i will grow from who for for almost 2 years. But i was there for all month the if i wanted, but i was there for doctor would have called their bluff thought it shut, you know, spit you forgot you each. Sure north little roams of classified the incident as an industrial accident when after several weeks in hospital, melissa went public in the attack, prompting media coverage. He was fired by romes over and accused of stealing timber. That disappeared whilst he was recovering, oppose that of the cause that i still live in it for to be nothing but to have a 7 inch. There are decent forests, try to defend their forests from the legal lovers, and some of them were even killed. You know, its a bit 2019 for a stranger living. You, papa was shot dead in the forest with his own gun. The latest victim. Many ranges a room. So that is part of the problem. And claim to witness widespread criminality. What sort of things even with us, i think might occur in plus drink lots of photos. But of course, most of them also photo documented as of today, do you people, it runs over senior people debate. I was scaring all shaved or call a lot of the ruthless sponsor. These are going to walk the retorts. Its become part of the sort of politician makes the what happens in order to get the money back for us where it was or what it is, all this illegal timber because theyre going to be rich, got it out of the german and up and no one will cost you wish to hold industry sweig tof changed its name to h. S. Timber after cavers recording in the in which they admitted to not saying, excepting thats paying a bonus for illegal timber h. S. Timber declines to be interviewed in a statement of the company said it no, had an action plan for a sustainable and secure all would supply chain that goes full beyond all the eagle requirements. And that it maintains an open and transparent log with the Civil Society or its representatives. The company did that. It denied allegations that bring another company in connection with illegalities. The company has, would mills nationwide consuming remains forests at an astonishing speed in the county of clues rejoined horia, one of a band of volunteer foresters who would create to take his to a site formerly known as beverly. But we could see for ourselves the impact of h. S. Timber. After more than 3 years of evaluating the damage, we reach a number of big trucks full with timber that went out from here illegally. That big company that bought all the theme better from here, 514. 00 knew exactly what happened and they didnt do anything. They just made a lot of profit in it statement a chest in the contested this claim. It said there was no clear because a tool, a just in the group in compliance with all boards acquired some volumes of timber from the storm affected by the way the country is being stripped clean of its precious forests. And yet the secretary of state, a former senior official at romes over, is strangely beat. Lamb not mostly spent part of that in which in fact and i did see bill management that ive been asked and could potentially good. And some temple a little from last yacht of them will be more costly than 20 years that she generally important but good. But still the forests are disappearing and has been public outrage at government complacency. Most of political polls of wrong doing and being passed to the authorities with any attempt to confront illegal logging seems deemed to end in failure. Even in the face of irrefutable evidence. In 28 agents from remain used directorate for investigating, organized crime, raided a chest in those offices. The prosecutors officially stated that they are investigating a clique for managers of the fight for company being full in transactions of illegal and also forged auctions with from so however, inexplicably, the case was kicked into the long grass and nothing has been heard about it. Since despite the public outrage of the romanian authorities, in theory, in practical basically nothing happens. The company in georgia completes monopoly on remain use software until the strict forest code was introduced by a new forest minister 2050. Evidently, i dont know. I mean frozen out of the good, neutral field of feeding myself, but the benefit of them i was that raises the volume of their muslim gnostics brought that on live with them with a college, you know, not the one minister or interim. The guardian was with the carry over, also even appeared the 2 girls that is the 1000000 are there. What about the minister also brought in a raft of measures in an attempt to close down the trade in illicit timber, which she says incurred the wrath of the forest. My fear on her cousin was that theres a boy leave it and gets a few schemata. They probably will, but they didnt fall. So momentum got almost no margin. Its only starlight really not on my feet. The minister resigned, citing ill health. Only later did she reveal the child being poisoned with near fatal doses of mercury. Yet they in the larger cloud of that in the manual, but its like a mafia. Young commodus young, going to have some of this criticism that almost done just when the governments are so much on water. But the ministers efforts had run if occasions, right across the Timber Industry and h. S. Turned, they were having to look further afield. And a new mill was opened in the form move of the country. Theres a mill, which is very close to the border with ukraine, which is one of the biggest, what males anywhere in europe vos, you can see it from space. This thing has its own right, going into a crime in order to bring these vos trains. So you have these plots along tritons and loaded with logs and timber. Coming into this factory in a regular basis. There are simply too weak there right now supplying 50 percent of their wood in a mania. And they had a 50 per cent. Its where encoding got a congress or the car paid. Yes. So for us as a biologist and specialist in a coal argy, it doesnt make a big difference because we look at the car breakdowns not from the contributions of your but from the eco system point of view. Its the same nicholas system. But its hard to imagine this view holding sway in the boardrooms of foreign movie nationals, communities like kroger, sram, another austrian timber, couldnt drummer. Its his factory in service. Its a very 1000000 cheap big metres of chipboard every year. Nearby forests, including the new tour of 2000 sites of 2 new troop enter a new low being illegally. A lot to service krone spends enormous Processing Plant new tour is and is a network of protected areas covering europes most fun of the pool and threatened species. And habitats this 1st shots by activists inside the protected site shows where trees were cursed and new roads built to get the logs. And its a potential death knell for the song. We films these 2 trucks leaving to need to renew or carrying illegal timber. 1st, the tracks go to a to b. , which we have been tracing the switch from that protected area to the flow yard and from the shelter yard that would just being unloaded from trucks loaded onto the trucks. Basically dis, no guarantees functioning that laundry for illegal wood and is being sent to crush fun to be sold to furniture companies, including we try to spend a bunch of these claims. But the company didnt respond to a request for an interview or a statement. For each party, one of the leading Furniture Retailers insists it will cut off any supply fun to have breached its stringent rules on sustainability. But that is easiest said than done. I can only say that in a clear using about 17 millions cubic meter of a year. Thats quite a big amount of food. And it of course puts a lot of responsibility to the fire that this would use source to responsibly. But it would be impossible to say that there is no any single cubic meter in truth and that our supply chain that could not have our own code region. Basically i care is the biggest consumer of wood on the planet. It consumes a tree every 2nd and its consuming too many more trees every year, and it is the year before because its growing so fast. And so, if youre going to save the worlds forests from consumption for timber and wood products, you have to look at the biggest consumer of this world on the planet. And thats like here. And ikea is very dependent on eastern europe. The remaining are russia, you crime, and these are countries with big problems with corruption and gouty. Interestingly, the biggest private forest own in rumania is into investment, which falls within the ikea brand. Creep of companies in a forest in romania are working very hard to implement. What they believe is needed to secure illegal and be your own legal requirements. It is to one of these include, forests that thomas whites, m. E. P. , joint leader of the european greens has come on a fact finding mission, concerned, not about illegality, but environmental damage. And to lou is another natori 2000 site. As we approach the Income Property logs littered the roadside. The main problem i see in that forest is actually that kind of road. You see massive erosion down there. Theres like dozens of cubic metres of earth, and it has been spilled into the river, and that river is on the high protection stand there down there. And if you spill all doubt into the river, youre affecting directly the eco system in the river. And thats not how we do it in the door at 2000 areas. This property is full of old growth forest. The key habitat which supports an abundance of floor and foreman, and jessica ording to the forest action plan. It is these very trees which are to be logged out as a matter of see the point is also to leave some old trees for the seeds actually for spreading of the seeds. And if we look here, the big trees are completely missing and here its not too late to save penta lou. The plan is to extract the trees here into 2026, so there is still time. But next day, tom joins our active ists, on a spur of remain his highest Mountain Mall the vein. To see what pantaloon might look like when the logs have finished. Its a steep climb through another nut or 2000 sighs. Through the mist, glimpses of ancient trees, dams suggest to it must have been an extraordinary landscape. What happened here is that there was a complete, clear cut down on the whole mountain ridge. It makes me feel very sorry, because forests offer a huge opportunity to harvest. Would support biodiversity, the forest is serving us with drinking water. Theyre serving us with fresh air. Theyre crucial for all society. A crucial fall battle against the climate crisis. From the 2nd, the true scale of the devastation, the fully understood however as awful as the scenes of clinical geno and the post of the story. 2 b this is like many times which just a few years ago, it was a famous but with Climate Change remained used for station a sort of direct impact. In the past joined the dry season. Trees provided much needed more sheets of the air. But with outreach over, the water has evaporated from the lake with tragic consequences. Because the land is not covered by trees. Well suck that, needed to take it off from what the lines from the lakes with all this the fish microclimate. This f. B. I. Are in just 3 or 4 years. And if we dont act very fast, its a disaster done before. But there is still much in rumania that can be saved. And it would be wrong to say that there is no gabriel, the fund of agent green has agreed to take us to the single most important forest in remain. Hes driving to a remote spot in the National Park where a companion 2019 brought from gould attention to illegal logging. This nation not bark is whole mall of almost all existing species, all florence, all night in europe. Its paradise. I would say its a kept it both by diversity in European Union as in the polk we find signs of fresh logging yet that you disaster. Im disgusted and im angry. That government is this respecting its own legislation and the highest Court Decision it in these nation are parked in the space where we are logging should be completely stopped. And sure enough, as we leave, we pass a loading truck coming to pick up the illegal timber for those who wish to save rumanians forests and their endangered inhabitants, there is no rest in their fight against ineffectual governments, powerful multinationals and the tim the mafia. 2900 first indigenous president into exile has considered his future and hope to return his party rallied behind new candidates with a tense, new election, drawing close in late 2020.
