Zachráňme spoločne tento les!

Forests are an integral part of Slovakia's image. Whether it is around the rivers or our mountains, almost always there is a forest on the horizon. We perceive the greenery emerging on the horizon almost subconsciously, but only few people know what is happening there, who or what lives or grows there. Only some realize that water does not flow from a tap, but most often is collected somewhere in the woods, that individual trees and also forests attenuate noise, reduce the amount of dust in our surroundings and are a sanctuary for different species of plants and animals. It is important to know these relationships, not to destroy them, but to understand them, because this is how we protect ourselves and our own future. (lesy.sk)

Why we are against the logging of the forest in Donovaly

We will show you beautiful pictures of autumn nature, a forest that will soon fall sacrifice to the summer ski hall in Donovaly. Do we really want to destroy such a piece of beautiful nature? After all, the forest is also used for recreation and relaxation, we do not need to build a place to relax, the place is there right now.

The forests of Donovaly represent a unique natural wealth. They are an irreplaceable natural environment in which thousands of residents and visitors regularly relax, do sports and recreate and provide a unique microclimate for all of us.

These are forests in the protection zone of NAPANT (Low Tatras National Park), where there is a II. degree of nature protection, they are home to a number of protected animals, plants and biotopes of European and national importance. However, this wealth is increasingly threatened - with intensive logging, including clearcutting, as well as increasing construction pressures. In addition, state forests are threatened by doubtful interchanges of forest lands that fall into the hands of private owners with the sole purpose of cutting and monetizing them, so build it over.

In this zone, developers decided to build a Summer Ski Hall, which would allow skiing even during hot summer days. However, such a hall will significantly damage the landscape, beautiful, old forests, water resources and the overall environment.

Our duty is to act:

It is our duty to reverse this negative trend and promote the sustainability of natural resources and to preserve these ecosystems. The preservation of cultural and natural values, which must be priority over business projects and investments, is crucial and necessary.

Don’t let turn the national park into an amusement park.

We believe that people who also care about the environment will join us to stop the devastation of natural resources, precious forests and to protect the health of all of us. 

We are people who care about the future of all generations. We think that development of region, tourism and sports can be realized in accordance with the protection of national parks, forests, nature.

“Inheritance is something we get at the beginning of our lives without our cause, and at the end we pass it on to the next generation. Whether we can preserve it or even enhance it depends only on us. The natural and cultural heritage has a wider dimension, it’s not just a house or a garden or a piece of field, it is something that individuals have created for the whole society - in the case of culture and - in the case of nature – what natural processes have created often with human participation. We will not “build” the natural and cultural heritage in a year or in ten years, but it can be destroyed very quickly. Therefore, its protection must be one of the highest priorities of the state. Precautions leading to nature protection are also the basis of our government program. ”JUDr. Boris Susko PhD., State Secretary of the Ministry of the Environment of Slovak republic.

We think it is necessary to ask the authorities, institutes and the Ministry of the Environment to take all necessary steps against the construction of such projects in areas such as Donovaly and especially their forests in order to preserve the natural value of the country.
