Sounds like a necessary evil to me.
Just so long as they plant new trees behind them.

Beneath its green canopy, sunlight filters down on to a panorama of skyscraper trees soaring as much as 180 feet into the air, ...

The way that's written it sounds like the 180 foot trees are the understory. Maybe the author's a little too emotional to think straight.

"Untouched by humans since the last ice age"

From Wikipedia: Before 1426 a wooden hunting manor for king Władysław Jagiełło was built in the middle of the Białowieża Forest on the Lutownia stream. It was most probably one of the first permanent settlements in the area, although the forest was already penetrated by hunters from the nearby areas and by the king himself... Hunter's manor - the oldest surviving building in Białowieża From 1538 the forest was protected by the laws of king Sigismund I the Old. However, until the times of John Casimir the forest was mostly unpopulated. Sporadic settlements were established in various places, but the manor in Białowieża was the only one to be permanent. In the late 17th century, several small villages were started for development of local iron ore deposits and tar production.../snip

I seriously doubt any forest in Europe is “primeval”. Old, yes, but people have lived all over Europe for thousands of years and Poland has been fought over since ancient times.
