conflict with the protest actions Mail
no tropical wood in Travemünde
The Baltic resort of Travemünde was planning for the reconfiguration of its beach promenade, benches and platforms made of tropical wood. As part of a campaign by Save the rain forest were 14 942 in April protest mails to the managers, the press reported in detail. The City Council was then succeeded in ensuring that local wood should be used. Now it is checked whether wood is used from the Lübeck municipal forest.

leave this kind of news in me always very mixed feelings: It is clear
it great to get involved so many people and protest writing mails and even great when they are so successful even. But should not really have a single reference to the problem of tropical wood enough these days, so rational-thinking city council that plan, put the head shaking akta ad and come to their senses?
I expect not so, that people "struggle through" in positions of responsibility on each and every factual knowledge, but I expect to know that they are arguments and objections with an open mind, relating to sustainability and the environment, and to make more sense not only under the pressure of the mass decisions. Because of when the critical limit is reached at 2,000, 5,000, 10,000 or even more email? And there are so many protests Mailer also when it comes to banks in Hintertupfingen? Or if no newspaper reports about it?
timber is an absolute no-go if you want to really have role models in politics, and therefore should also decisions to be made.
