Illegal logging is plaguing countries like Brazil, Congo or Indonesia. It is the even uglier side of deforestation, with which criminals are not only killing the planet and destroying communities, but they’re doing so on land protected by government, or that belongs to someone else. Wood logged this way can be sold in Europe due to a legal loophole. We want to close this loophole, and we’re going to need help for that.
