“Human stupidity has no limits” – so one of the Internet users commented on a photo published by the Trzcianka Forest District. You can see the aquarium that someone left over the lake. The tank is filled to the brim with bottles. “Garbage is flooded with our forests, wasteland, lakes and rivers. The quantities discovered in recent months of wild dumps are shocking” – write foresters.

“Human stupidity has no limits”
– We find different things in the forest. Usually these are abandoned trash bags or old tires. But this is a “outstanding” find, we didn't know something like that yet – said Dawid Herba, commander of the Forest Guard post.
“Human stupidity has no boundaries”, “punish, punish and punish again so that they really feel it” – the Internet users thunder.
Foresters and guards openly say that rubbish floods forests. Despite attempts to educate young people and publicize cases of littering the environment, the problem still exists. – We try to determine the perpetrators of offenses. Of course, it's best to catch someone in the act. Although in the garbage left, it is also possible to find something that will lead to their “owner” – added Herba.
What penalties threaten for littering forests, is recorded in art. 161 and 162 of the Code of Offenses. “For littering the forest, a fine may be imposed by a penalty fine of PLN 500, and PLN 1,000 for a coincidence of two offenses, e.g. (illegal entry and parking in forest areas plus littering the forest). If the case is referred to court, it may be a fine” – remind the state forests.
