A letter sent to the proper authorities from Center for Developing Ecological Awareness "The Well" stating support for protection of Zvezdara forest.

Poštovani,

izražavamo zabrinutost i protivljenje predloženom urbanističkom planu detaljne regulacije Zvezdarske šume.

Od opšteg značaja je da šuma kao društveno dobro bude očuvana.

Najavljen predlog po kome se delovi šume uništavaju smatramo neodrživim.

Molimo vas da se zauzmete integritetom i autoritetom za spas šume.

Može se iznaći situacija u kojoj svi dobijaju. Sečom šume svi gubimo.

Sa velikim poštovanjem i verom da radite za opšte dobro .

Dear Sir,

We are expressing concern and opposition to the proposed Plan for detailed regulation of Zvezdara forest.

It is important for everyone to preserve the forest as a common good.

We ask You to intercede in behalf of protection of Zvezdara forest, with Your integrity and authority.

Situation in which everyone is a winner can be found. By cutting down the forest we all lose.

With great respect and faith that You work for the common good,

Center for Developing Ecological Awareness – “The Well”,

A letter sent to the proper authorities from Union of Parks and Landscape Specialists in Bulgaria stating support for protection of Zvezdara forest.

Dear Madams, Sirs,

The members of the Union of Parks and Landscape Specialists in Bulgaria (founded in 1991) are convinced the realization of the new detailed regulation plan of the valuable Belgrade’s Zvezdara Forest will cause irretrievable damages on the different components of the urban environment (air temperature, chemical composition and presence of dust, biodiversity, wind regime etc.) and citizens will be denied the opportunities of being in contact with nature’s elements, so of recreating their physical and spiritual health. As result the quality of life of people of the different age groups will be considerably lowered for ever. Authorities that are concerned of their citizens do not act in such way, because their main task is to assure the happiness of all the people in the respective state, region or city. We express our full support to the initiative of Belgrade’s citizens and insist that the planed business activities in the Zvezdara forest will be realized elsewhere where the environment and people’s life will not be harm so heavily!
