How sad your government will let this happen to your National tree - it seems governments are the same the whole world over. Thank goodness for people power and others like yourselves.
There are terrible tales of what is happening in Bulgaria in a couple of threads by balkantrek.
Bulgaria builds windfarm in "Kaliakra" Important Bird Area
Bulgaria destroying the "Emine" Important Bird Area
I can't belive that this is allowed to happen, I would have thought the EU could have put it foot down.
Just pure greed - people can't even plead ignorance these days like in the past when they just didn't know what affect such actions would have on wildlife etc.
The Pau Brasil tree looks smaller than I would have imagined when I think of the trees we see in images from the rain forests there.
Thanks for the great picture and informative post
