    A69 Highway : 'Majo' Of The Crem'arbres ZAD Receives The Label 'Outstanding Tree Of The Year'

    Two 'zadistes' are looking at 'Majo', the London plane tree that has been named 'Outstanding Tree of the Year', while holding fake tombstones reading 'Here lies Espoir' in memory of 'Espoir' ('Hope'), an oak tree that was illegally cut down by NGE/Atosca in the Crem'Arbres woods. Georges Feterman, the president of the NGO A.R.B.R.E.S, is visiting the Crem'Arbres to present the prestigious label to 'Majo'.
