The rupture between sylvicultural and agriculturally exploited areas, the regression of semi-urban forests that lost their function as wood producers over the course of the 19th century, the wish to create green spaces for the leisure activities of the population all these points help to explain the power exercised today by the decision-makers of forest policy, i.e. the elite of the city. The message emerged at the end of the century and was spread by the media from the side of the opposition. Public power was the target of environmental associations. The study examines the reasons for the support the latter managed to rally and the attention paid to them. It also analyses the way in which associations are able use this attention to their own advantage. The study deals with the progression of the carrying themes including their reorientation and alteration. The associative result was considerable. The combined actions of public power and pressure groups helped the general population to take seriously the problems posed by urban extension to the legacy and history of the forest, particularly in Brussels. While the model might be suited to a capital it could be imprudent to impose it in other forests.
