Every second a tree is cut down to become an affordable IKEA product. The Swedish mega-company claims it's sustainable, but is that really the case?
Investigative journalist, Tom Heinemann, visits IKEA's forests in Romania's Carpathian Mountains to discover how their production line is impacting the safety of the forest, wildlife and local biodiversity.
Ikea elsker træ (IKEA Loves Wood) is part of the 2026 Environmental Film Festival; a series of compelling films that celebrate our planet and the people fighting to protect it. See the full lineup here.
