Over there deforestation it also affects several old forested areas in Romania. This one protected areas they are cut down to produce; granules for heating. The alarm was raised by an American NGO, theEnvironmental research agencywhich denounced the destruction of the last pristine forests in Europe.
It seems that about 35-40% of the pellets produced in the Romanian plants come from protected forest areas. The study was based on a wood tracking system for a whole year and which made it possible to estimate a volume of treated wood of more than 7 million cubic meters per year.
While the deforestation of the Amazon rainforest has displaced the world, hardly anyone realizes that Europe has a heritage of old-growth forests of equal importance. The risks they take remain an untold story.

With the increase in energy prices, the situation could even worsen, causing Romania to relax restrictions on deforestation like Hungary. The European Parliament voted on 13 September to review the European Renewable Energy Directivecalling for a gradual reduction in the share of primary wood considered a renewable energy source.
