FRANCE-ENVIRONMENT-AGRICULTURE-PROTEST

An environmental activist stands at the "zone to defend" (ZAD) area near the site of a proposed dam in the Sivens forest as pro-dam farmers block roads leading to ZAD on March 5, 2015. Pro-dam farmers, who are blocking roads leading to the ZAD area, argue that the dam will provide much-needed irrigation for their fields, but anti-dam activists say the project poses a huge environmental threat to the Sivens wetland. The Tarn department council is due to meet on March 6 to discuss alternatives to the original dam project. AFP PHOTO / REMY GABALDA (Photo credit should read REMY GABALDA/AFP via Getty Images)
