A shepherd takes care of his sheeps in the 'Zad' ('zone a defendre', zone to defend) of Notre-Dame-des-Landes, on January 19, 2018 two days after the French government's official decision to abandon the Grand Ouest Airport (AGO) project in Notre-Dame-des-Landes. Activists on the 1,600-hectare rural site say they have developed it into a utopia of organic farming and political debate.
