📅 17 Yanüari 2018 📍 Fransia

The French government announced that it would not build the long-contested airport. Decades of resistance included legal challenges, local organizing, farmer actions and the ZAD experiment in collective occupation and land use. The announcement was a major movement victory, though residents still faced pressure to regularize occupations and the state later carried out evictions. The outcome illustrates how an environmental campaign can alter national infrastructure policy while leaving unresolved questions about land stewardship and self-determination.
