IMPRESSIONER FRÅN RÄLLASKOGEN 2009

[publicworksoffice]

That's too sad if this lovely place is threatened by development. Surely Ekerum realise that if they ruin this precious place, they ruin their own reputation.

Good luck Rällaskogen!

Thank you for your comment!

I hope that the Ekerums, they are businessmen, realize what good reputation means!

Lieber Stafan,

Kahlschlag in der Natur und Kahlschlag in den Köpfen. Vor kurzem habe ich folgende passende Gedanken/Worte in dem Boch "Totes Holz" gelesen:

" SILBENSCHWUND UND LAUTVERFALL.

MÜHSAM; AUS VERGANGENER SPRACHE BUCHSTABIEREN DIE KINDER: ' ÜBER ALLEN WIPFELN ...' BIS: 'WARTE, NUR BALDE ...' "

Ich wünsche viel Energie und Geduld beim Kampf zum Erhalt des Naturreservats!

Grüße Tanja

Liebe Tanja,

kann es von Goethe sein? Wir fluchen wenn wir hören, dass ein Gebiet so groß wie Bayern jedes Jahr in den Regenwäldern abgeholzt wird. Aber wenn auf einer waldarmen Ostseeinsel ein kleiner feiner Wald vernichtet wird, kräht kein Hahn (ausser uns) danach.

...I would go to the government of the city and convince them: they should give this golf-company - instead of a wonderful paradise - an abbandaned area, a gab between buildings - whatever, - something, which needs to be changed to the better, : then this golfplace would be a blessing for the community, and the chance, that people come there to play, would be much bigger - because of sympathy.

So it also would be a good thing for the golf-company.

best, Lisa

Dear Lisa,

the problem here is that golf club already own this forest! Yes, you heard right! And now they have applied for building 150 summer houses close to the golf club. That is that what we are trying to stop. Many things have gone wrong from the beginning just because the politicians were blind and agreed in selling the forest to the golf club.

...1.they have to say why this place, (why not another one), - to say and to prove.

2. They have to prove that there is no other place in Sweden, where they can build this golfplace.

(that is very important!)

I suggest you to try to find abandoned places, perhaps nearby. Perhaps you can find a place, which already is destroyed and while changing it in a golfplace, it would be changed in a much more valuable place for the community....

[lisa1234561000]

Dear Stefan,

also the film is very fine. It shows the sadness about the loss of a paradise.

These people, who plan to destroy that paradise -

I think, you (all) should demand something:...

Dear Stefan,

What vandalism it would be! Golf clubs actively seek out places of beauty that they seek to own and to sanitise. But thus they destroy what they seek. The mere game of golf could be played anywhere, it certainly should be allowed to destroy this place of beauty and calm. I'll sign anything! Good luck!

Dear David,

When I first heard about the plans I just didn't want to hear, it was too sick! For thirty years I know and love this forest. And I'm not alone. When I gave lute courses on Öland we used to make jogging there every day.

[lisa1234561000]

That is very sad. The place is lovely, and I hope that you can keep it this way. "Business (money) takes over!" - this is how things often function today.

It would be important to inform people, who are in charge of protecting the environment. Their protest can help, perhaps. And I would inform officials - urban planner, for example, who feel responsible for nature and have the knowledge to find/offer other places or at least to ask for other solutions.

Good luck! Lisa

[slundi0505]

Dear Lisa,

thank you for your compassion.

It's easy to say, it's bad, but we can't change it! But I know that we feel better when we try to change something! Even if you loose, you know, you are not alone! Thank you for your ideas!

[luitluit]

It's a sad world where money in stead of beauty rules. The poor of spirit destroy the wealth that cannot not be replaced. What has made them so blind?

David

[slundi0505]

Dear David,

a long journey begins with the first step. And we can change if many people stand up and say: "no, not in this way, why not like this". And, what is good for the nature is good for us.

[ArwenSulamith]

What beautiful music!  Beautiful film!

Please save this forest.

It's your lung, your health and your wealth.

[slundi0505]

Dear Arwen,

thank you for your comments, especially the last line!

Vi svenskar vill gärna kommentera andra länders vansinne när det gäller exploateringar för att tillmötesgå turismen, men här ser vi ett praktexempel på att de styrande "inte ser skogen för bara träd". Vad vi inte får glömma är att även det enkla och naturliga lockar folk om än en annan kategori än den man kanske tänkt på från början. MEN de måste veta att just den här skogen finns för att hitta dit!

[slundi0505]

Hej Vonnsie,

som du ser har just människor från andra länder kommenterat filmen. De som trott att Sverige är ett föregångsland vad det beträffar vårdandet av naturvärden. Nu hoppas vi att politikerna förstår vems och vilkas intressen dom borde stödja.

[ThisDream]

I'll sign a petition to protect this from golf clubs.

[slundi0505]

Thank You! We will work on it!

Und das soll platt gemacht werden ???!!! Welch ein Wahnsinn. Schweden war doch immer ein Vorbild, wenn es um die Erhaltung der Natur ging.

Das darf einfahc nicht wahr sein. Ich bin entsetzt.

[slundi0505]

Lieber Hans!

Danke Dir! Genau diese Meinung hatte ich auch von Schweden bis ich die Baupläne für den Wald sah. Aber wir geben nicht auf: "Geduld und Hoffnung wird siegen".
