View of a march to Hambach Forest, with banners to draw attention to the threat of deforestation. The forest became a nationally recognised symbol of resistance against the expansion of lignite mining and the fight against progressive climate change and global warming. Environmental activists and climate activists lived in tree houses for years to protest against deforestation. Hambach Forest, Düren district, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, Western Europe
