    If I remember correctly, there is a pine monoculture typical of Brandenburg. It’s not a forest, it’s a plantation that would have been harvested in a few years anyway. The ecological damage is therefore very limited.

          These days I just lump all shoddy journalism and ragebait in with intentional, calculated, psychological warfare. Why give them the benefit of the doubt when they don’t respect your energy or attention?

      They don’t do it for those specific trees though. They do it because clearing trees and building a factory changes the region’s water household:
