Here comes the “forest instead of asphalt” Newsletter for the period until 8.
November with reports on the situation in the Danni and on numerous
Activities! What’s new from the occupation?
On last Monday 26.October at 5.30 am in the morning the
final clearance and clearing of the barrios underground and high
Society in the Herrenwald. Occupied ground structures were destroyed by the police
cleared. In the trees, however, about 50 activists spent nine hours
long even then the position, as around it already cleared
was. Both clearance and clearing are increasingly carried out in parallel and
under time pressure. As long as parliamentarians: inside and press
were present, everything was still going on at reasonable conditions.
Unobserved was increasingly cleared by force: pain grips, head
twist, pull the hair, cut the crossbars, where there are still
was climbed. After completion of the clearing work the
Aktivisti in the late afternoon of his own accord and unhurt the
occupied trees. In Herrenwald the route is now complete
cleared. Despite the current clearing of the Herrenwald, the
resistance, however, was quite successful. Thus, the people from the DEGES
announced clearing of 4 hectares per day to 1, 2 hectares
be slowed down.
After the Hessian state parliament decided against a
of the police union, Corona, the demolition of the
the police operation, the police have decided to increase the pressure on the
increasingly on all levels. Columns of personnel carriers
drove through the villages to intimidate with their presence. At night
in some barrios the sleep of the activists with spotlights was
disturbed. On Saturday, a helicopter took off with
thermal imaging cameras took pictures of the barrios in the Danni to
to estimate the number of people there.
But also the (registered and legal) solidarity actions
outside the forest are increasingly criminalized and disturbed. The
participants of the two big bicycle demos on Saturday and

One more word about the abseiling actions: Of course they are for all
Commuters:inside the Rhein-Main area annoying, and it circulates in
in some parts of the reports abstruse exaggerations and
legally completely unfounded assessments. A rear-end collision in 8 Km

the abseiling of bridges. Until 2,5m it is not an “acute
traffic hazard”; after all, repair crews also rope themselves from
freeway bridges. This brand was not used by the activists
exceeded. To close the highways nevertheless, was a decision
of the police, which could have turned out differently.
As you can see from these few examples, things are becoming increasingly restless in
and about the Danni. The political signs are for eviction. The struggle
around the Danni becomes thereby ever more a general symbol of the
Resistance against a failed climate policy using the example of
A traffic turnaround that somehow never seems to happen… Logical

Barbara Schlemmer of Aktionsbündnis keine A49! pointed out in her speech
the far-reaching importance of the (now) two expert opinions
towards the water right. The effects of the clearing of 80,000 trees and
the overbuilding of the water protection area to the groundwater quality
and the groundwater quantity were taken into account in the planning report for the
not examined. Technical defects, such as the lack of
double-walled pipelines and the correct drainage of rainwater
in retention basins are added. In many areas data was even
not or only incompletely collected. Overall, the basis of the
plan approval is so inadequate in terms of water law that the approval
must be taken back! In politics nobody can be
sufficient approval procedures. Who does it nevertheless,
pursues interests that are not related to water and climate protection
orientation.
Jessica Stolzenberger, one of the founders:inside the climate list
Germany, became even clearer in her speech: “Our
Politics lives on a planet without climate catastrophe! They are not
nameless people who lay hands on grandma and grandpa (two over 300 years
old proud oaks at Danni; Grandma has already been cut down). They are
Politicians:in whose flags climate protection is written. We, the young
generation, the heat waves, droughts, storms and all other consequences
of climate change will still be experienced, demand future-oriented
and will ensure that this is done in the parliaments themselves in the future”.

In the Küfa (kitchen for everyone) the situation has now changed
stabilized, albeit at a lower level than before. The
Barrios in the forest are therefore increasingly cooking for themselves again. On Sunday there was
additional support by the action kitchen Freiburg, the vegan

here comes the Wald-Statt-Asphalt newsletter for the period until November 1st with reports about the situation in the Danni and about numerous activities! What’s new from the occupation?
During the past week the Herrenwald continued to be cleared. The recently created barrios Recently and everywhere have been cleared. Underground was partially cleared and still exists in short-term tree occupations. The current goal is to hold the position with light platforms and hanging seats at half tree height even with few activists, to delay the clearing work and to tie up capacities of the police and the clearing troops. This has worked quite well so far. In parallel, the barrios in the Danni have been structurally consolidated and solidarity actions have been initiated.
At the political and media level, the resistance of the forest occupation against the A49 and a failed mobility and climate policy has continued to be successfully maintained in social discourse. The legal debate was also revived with a legal opinion commissioned by Greenpeace. In essence, the study points out that the effects of deforestation and overbuilding have not been sufficiently investigated and that water law issues have not been conclusively clarified by the Ministry of the Environment. In addition, the planning approval decision of 2012 is said to be outdated, as the effects of the freeway construction on the global climate were unrealistically depicted, especially in view of the drinking water emergencies in Hesse in 2018 and 2020.
In the meantime, there are so many well-founded arguments in the general debate in favor of stopping the A49, or at least a moratorium to reconsider alternatives, that it seems anachronistic that the state members’ meeting of the Hessian Green Party on October 25th, with 407 of 460 votes, followed the proposal of the party leadership and, although it distanced itself from the construction of the A49, otherwise referred to the federal government. So there is nothing new with Tarek Al-Wazir and his black-green coalition.
On Sunday about 1500 people came together again for a walk in the forest, the rally and the human chain. Connected with red-white fluttering ribbons a red line was drawn against the clearing.
Remarkable was the high discipline with which the gathering was held on the Danneröder Sportplatz under corona distance conditions and mask duty on the whole area.
Saturday was thematically marked by lectures and discussions on feminism. Katharina Hoppe and Viona Hartmann from the Goethe University in Frankfurt spoke under the motto “Patriachart räumen, Wald bewahren” about transnational feminist perspectives and their demands for climate justice. The history of feminism, its basic thematic currents and its strong links to ecology were explained. The women’s peace movement at the end of the 19th century developed into demands for equality and participation, health, labor law and protection against violence. Consequently, a fundamental critique of economic conditions and the demand for post-growth models, a priority of ecology and the deconstruction of outdated ideas and conceptions also emerged.
The action group Red Rebels accompanied the actions on Saturday with an impressive performance. Even the way into the Herrenwald resembled a feat of art. With the police always in the rear-view mirror, they drove in several vehicles on detours into the cleared aisle.
Abseiling action: on Monday, October 26, activists abseiled from three highway bridges in the early morning hours. Traffic jams are occurring on the A3, A5 and A661 freeways. In addition to the media attention, the main reason for this was that the clearing work in the Herrenwald was delayed by many hours because the police escort was missing. At the moment, every day that the clearings do not progress counts.
For all those who are considering to become more actively involved in the forest occupation, the verdict of the VGH Kassel might be interesting. The VGH formulates laconically: “A general prohibition of gatherings is probably illegal. Consequently (so the VHG) “the formation of human chains around harvesters, lifting platforms, clearing equipment and tree houses is permitted”.
Also in the Küfa (kitchen for all) further humans are looked for, who help. After the entire kitchen team was replaced last week as a precautionary measure, since one person in the crew’s environment tested positive for Corona, the supply situation for barrios and camps has now been restored. However, the kitchen crew was partially at the limit. So if you have some time left in the next few days, please call 0178 373 2535 and offer help. A buddy system was introduced, which makes it easier for new people to join the consciously non-hierarchical crew. Whoever plans to be at the camp on the weekend can also take part in the kitchen plenum on Fridays around 9 p.m. and get assigned. People who want to work for more than one day are especially welcome.
The overwhelming willingness to bring food donations to the Küfa is still unbroken. Most recently, for example, half a ton of tofu and half a ton of potatoes were donated, for which places in the barn camp had to be found quickly. Neighbor:inside provided the harvest of fruit trees, cakes and spreads. Especially the lovingly baked cake always creates enthusiasm – especially when it is vegan baked.
Nationwide action days forest instead of asphalt
Background considerations for the action days
The clearing and clearance for the A49 has begun. Up to now, the arguments of the forest occupation have received a predominantly positive response in the reporting. Criticism of the Greens, the state and federal levels is now a matter of course. We will therefore now take the demand not to build the A49 to the next level. We want to ensure that the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan is fundamentally reviewed with regard to its harmfulness to the climate. Freeways must even be completely put to the test. For this, Andreas Scheuer and the CDU must be approached directly! This is what we want to do loudly during the European Conference of Transport Ministers:interiors, which will be held online from 29-30 October. Let’s show what we think of the current transport policy! So get on your bike and cycle for the mobility turnaround! Or take part in one of the local actions on 29 October.

From 29th to 30th of October the European Transport Ministers’ Conference will take place online. Two days we can make clear what we think about the current transport policy! Starting with creative small group actions on Thursday, we want to take as many bicycles as possible onto the freeways (or, if applicable, federal roads or similar) on Fridays to get directly to the to call for a socio-ecologically just turnaround in mobility at the place of action! The next day, we all drive back to the Danni together against the A49 on the A49 (More info: a49fahrraddemo.blackblogs.org). On Sunday there is a big walk in the Dannenröder forest.
With the increasing corona numbers, decentralized bicycle demos or creative small group actions are perfect for emphasizing the urgently needed change in the traffic sector and the preservation of the forests.
When do you want to do your action? Thursdays (29.10.) or Fridays (30.10.)?

On October 1, the clearing and clearing work in the Herrenwald began, and this week it was also started in the Maulbach Forest. Current information about the forest occupations in Dannenröder, Herrenlos and Maulbach Forest can be found on the Danni ticker:
➡️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/danniticker
➡️ Telegram: https://t.me/DanniTicker
See you in the forest or on the #MotorwayInTheClimateCrisis.
Here again a chronology of the events of the first days of clearing and clearing.
[Friday, 02.10.20]
On Friday, the clearing work in the Herrenlos forest was continued. The cops had to find out early in the morning that the barrio “Im Norden OK” was reoccupied overnight. The police again massively obstructed the press work. A Fridays for Future demonstration came to the Herrenloswald as support. A sit-in blockade blocked the way of one of the harvesters for some time. There was violence against activists who wanted to enter the forest. (Trigger warning: https://twitter.com/wsa_buendnis/status/1312049028306264065)
The barrio was finally cleared for the second time and the trees were felled under strong police protection.
In Berlin, FFF and Anti Kohle Kidz occupied the state representation of Hesse in Berlin (https://twitter.com/keinea49/status/1311913422792077312)
The vigil at the Schmitthof was occupied and will remain so for the next few days.
[Saturday, 03.10.20]
The bicycle demo started on the finished part of the A49 from Kassel to the Danni with 300 people. (https://twitter.com/jakobroschka/status/1312319701876453376)
Meanwhile, people occupied the A49 construction site near Schlierbach. They erected a tripod and put up several tents. (https://twitter.com/keinea49/status/1312379210049236992)
[Sunday, 4.10.]
Big demonstration in Dannenrod
The large demonstration by Campact and BUND with concerts and speeches was attended by about 5000 people and went on until late in the evening. Many of the visitors* admired the forest, while further barriques were created in the Danni.

Soli-Tree-Occupation in Berlin
In solidarity with the forest and the people here, a tree was also occupied on Sunday in Berlin. Also actions outside the forest are a great support!

[Monday, 5.10.]
Mauli
Clearing and clearing continued in the Mauli. The activists and citizens* tried to stop the police and the harvesters with tripods and sit-in blockades. This resulted in the boiling of a spontaneous meeting.
The handling of cleared activists was also illegal, because some of them were simply left in the forest in bad condition after being forcibly removed from the trees.
Letzte Woche palavert @Polizei_MH noch davon, dass "Sicherheit vor Schnelligkeit" gelte, am #maulibleibt sah das Montag dann so aus: 30 Meter hohe Bäume werden 6 Meter neben Menschen im Baumhaus gefällt.
Das ist lebensgefährlich!
Lasst das! @gruenehessen #keinea49 pic.twitter.com/QDyKryIxxf— Dannenröder Wald (@keinea49) October 5, 2020
In order to demonstrate against the banned assembly in Maulbach, a traffic circle in Homberg was occupied, to send an active signal against the expansion of the freeway.

Bulldozer occupation
At the same time a bulldozer was occupied in Dannenrod near the camp, which was cleared in the evening. The handling of the Akivistis was also grossly negligent, because the weather conditions would not have actually allowed an evacuation. After a policeman was injured by the crane, the squatters decided to leave the vehicle in order not to endanger themselves further.

In the early hours of the morning, activists blocked the entrance to Ferrero, one of the main protagonists* of the new highway, sending a signal against industry and corporate interests.

What’s new from the occupation?
Legal information
The general decree of the Vogelsberg district came into force at the weekend.
This means that since Saturday the squatters* should officially leave the area. Since this does not happen, among other things “private property” on the route area is no longer safe and there is a legal basis for the eviction.
The proclaimed traffic light stage 🔴, continues to stop accordingly. Further attempts to evict are expected at any time from now on. We will keep you up to date!
Ende Gelände joins Danni #Autocorrection
Last Saturday an EC finger started into the forest to bring materials into the occupation and to build new barricades.
You can find pictures here: https://twitter.com/EG_Danni/status/1309886154574098437
Sunday walk
Countless people took part in the Sunday walk the day before yesterday, marveled at buildings and danced at the stages.
What are the groups of supporters of the Dannenröder Wald planning?
The Sunday walk is and remains a good way to see the forest with your own eyes! This Sunday the forest walk will become a demo and should be bigger than all previous ones! At 12 o’clock it starts. We recommend an early arrival. You can find out what is planned here: https://www.danni-bleibt.de/
Fridays for Future joins Danni
Starting from 3.10. Fridays for Future moves into the protest camps and the people spend their autumn vacations near the Dannenröder forest: https://www.instagram.com/p/CFo55GqChWM/?igshid=18l2ynh46q7pe
Bicycle Demo
Parallel to the autocorrection action in the forest, about 300 motivated people cycled over the existing section of the A 49 from Kassel to the Danni. They set a strong signal against further construction and blocked the roadway for several hours. Next Saturday the same action will take place again. Come by!

What can I do to help the forest?
Material
Winter is coming! In the forest we are looking for sleeping bags, old warm clothes, tarpaulins, blankets, pillows, hot water bottles, thermos flasks and other things that keep people warm and dry. Otherwise, people are looking for headlamps, laser printer/toner with USB, extension cables, building materials and tools, among other things. You can find an extensive wish list here: https://waldstattasphalt.blackblogs.org/materialwunsche/
In the camp, power strips, large tents and tools are still needed. The paramedics* inside need crutches, not expired compresses, Octenisept and Aircast splints. The GeSa Support is happy about drums with which they can make music loudly in front of the prisoner collection points. The Küfa is happy about every vegan food donation!
Support
In the forest, structures are sprouting from the ground and for this, people are still needed who are willing to occupy them. Previous experience is cool, but not necessary!
The barrio “Im Norden OK” is only 15 feet away from the train station Stadtallendorf and is especially happy about new people who want to spend hours/days/weeks there and in the best case they want to help with setting up the camp there.
Outside of the forest the dear people of the Küfa (kitchen for all) urgently wish for helping hands when snipping, cooking and washing up, because without munch no fight! Furthermore the Gesa support, the camp-orga, the paramedics* and also the awareness team are happy about motivated people. These are all tasks where you don’t have to expect confrontations with police and Secus. Get in touch with the info point!
