Bengus and his team are determined to restore the forest despite the ongoing conflict. He believes that nature can recover, saying, "I'm more optimistic now than before. Where we are standing will be Ukraine." Their efforts include planting oaks, which will take decades to mature but symbolize hope for the future.
The destruction around Kharkiv exemplifies the devastation caused by the war, with military efforts from both sides impacting the environment significantly. Bengus stated, "The oaks will take 25 years to reach maturity. But I'm certain the forest will survive," showcasing a commitment to ecological renewal despite uncertainty.
