Romania's Fight for the Forest
For thousands of years, Romania’s forests have played a central role in shaping its dramatic history. Over the centuries, large swathes of this precious environment have made way for empires, outlived regimes and helped ward off invasion.

Romania's Fight for the Forest offers us a rare insight into the disappearing world of the country’s environmental red zones, profiling the work of frontline defenders as they increasingly turn to technology in their fight for the forest.
