Officials in Russia plan to pass Bill No. 145734 legalizing clear-cutting of protective forests across the country! Instead of ancient forests of the most critically important PROTECTIVE category, ski resorts will be built. Officials also plan to transfer land from the state forest fund to other categories for development in the interest of businesses.
Ski resorts will be built in mountainous refuges of wildlife, meaning the last remaining areas of untouched nature where ecosystems can seek shelter from human influence! At the start of the bill's introduction, the figures for "global development" were announced: over 260 resort projects worth more than 300 billion rubles. This only serves immediate interests, meaning that the bill will further allow the destruction of PROTECTIVE FORESTS with practically no limitations.
As part of Pavel Pashkov's projects, a public poll was conducted on a Telegram channel. 98% of respondents oppose the bill.
Voting results:
"Does the bill for the clear-cutting of protective forests in wildlife mountain refuges violate your environmental safety and rights?"
98% - YES, it violates my rights
2% - NO, my rights are not violated
THIS IS A CRIME!
Russian society is categorically against the adoption of the bill for the clear-cutting of PROTECTIVE FORESTS in our country. These forests, of the utmost importance, must remain untouched! Downgrading their status is unacceptable.
The category of protective forests not only shields the last refuges of wildlife but also protects us and our children. Any "development" of specially protected natural areas is unacceptable and constitutes a crime against humanity, against each one of us, and against future generations.
We fully understand that officials and big business are dividing hundreds of billions of rubles, and their primary interest is not "developing" wildlife, but profiting from massive sums of money. This is a project for short-term profits, benefiting only a small handful of individuals lobbying for the bill.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
We believe that the bill for the clear-cutting of PROTECTIVE FORESTS in wildlife mountain refuges violates our rights to environmental safety. Moreover, the bill not only threatens environmental safety but also the NATIONAL security of our State.
The clear-cutting of protective forests will lead to the destruction of ecosystems, the annihilation of animals and plants, and the creation of human pressure on wildlife refuges. This will result in further downgrading of their protection status for the sake of commercial "development" of minimally disturbed and untouched natural areas.
ACT NOW!
We demand that Bill No. 145734 be stopped. Help bring about change! Only real public outcry will prevent this bill from being considered. If it is passed, it will be PRACTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to repeal it, and the destruction of PROTECTIVE FORESTS will begin across the country.
Write a letter in your own words explaining why you oppose this bill. All letters must be different, so write what you truly think!
I, (Full Name), have learned that Russia plans to pass bill №145734, which would legalize the logging of protective forests for the construction of tourist facilities. Moreover, large businesses and officials lobbying for this bill seek to permit not only clear-cutting of protective forests but also the reclassification of land from the State Forest Fund to other categories. Additionally, the commercial interests have been revealed: at the initial stage of developing these wild mountain refuges, they plan to build at least 260 resort facilities with a total value exceeding 300 billion rubles.
I believe that this is an open crime against the ecological safety of citizens. Protective forests safeguard not only the relatively untouched areas of wildlife, providing shelter for the last populations of many species of animals and plants, but they also protect us, the people!
I openly declare that bill №145734 violates my legal right to environmental safety! I urge you to support the public and stand against the adoption of this bill to prevent the destruction of the last remaining wild areas in our country!
No form of “development” of protective or any other specially protected areas in Russia is acceptable! This is our homeland, our land, and it is where our descendants will live.
On my own behalf, I ask you not to allow the adoption of this bill!
There will be no turning back: stand with the people of Russia!

We are sending mass appeals to President Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation. Most likely, our appeals will be forwarded to the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Russian Federation, which is directly interested in destroying protective forests.
But it is important that our voices be heard and noticed so that the agencies know that thousands of people stand in defense of the Russian Taiga.

- And the third and very important step, let's make sure we are visible and as many people as possible become aware of the problem! The media are afraid to bring this information to light, so we can only rely on ourselves. Share the link to this page and post it on social media, everywhere you can.
You can also open the bill itself on the official legislative initiatives website, review its text, and DISLIKE it (at the top of the bill). Right now, the lobbyists for forest destruction are trying to justify the need for the bill and gather positive opinions! We need to show that there are many of us, and we are against it.
Meanwhile, our team is preparing the next steps to prevent the passage of the bill on the destruction of protective forests in Russia. We need the support of each one of you to convey the information not only to the top federal authorities but also to the heart of every resident of our Motherland!
Please act!
We have very little time.
