    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'. This London plane, along with other trees, would have been illegally cut down by NGE/Atosca if the 'Ecureuils' ('squirrels') had not occupied the trees for 39 days. Following a 39-day police siege of the Crem'Arbres, the French justice system ruled that the Crem'Arbre must be protected and the trees should remain uncut until September 1st. People, sympathizers, and LVEL members are coming together for the ceremony to award the 'Outstanding Tree of the Year' label.
