The ZAD ("zone to defend") of Notre-Dame-des-Landes is a "social experiment" set
up by the opponents of the Grand Ouest airport project, in
Notre-Dame-des-Landes. The struggle against the airport was the occasion for
about fifty naturalists (called "Les Naturalistes en Lutte") to list the fauna
and flora of the area, in order to defend it with arguments of biodiversity
protection. It then became a zone of experimentation of life in non-market
society and various other social experiments, which will last in part, after the
abandonment of the airport project. Source text: wikipedia Source main image:
