About
Olf has been documenting the protests occuring in Dannenroeder Forst where, on the 5th December 2020 the group "Ende Gelände" proclaimed a period of civil disobedience in Dannenroeder Forest. Hundreds of activists blocked the paths through the woods to prevent further deforestation and halt the construction of the new motorway A49 which would connect the cities of Gießen and Kassel (where a road section already exists but currently leads nowhere). 85ha of the ancient forests are projected to be felled in total, 27ha of them are located in the Dannenrod Forest.
