Ile-de-France is a region of great contrasts, the main economic engine of which is its capital: Paris. A worrying situation that motivated our Green Heroes of the day not to play fatalistic and take their destiny into their own hands to change the course of things.

From the Pyrenean mountains to the great wild beaches of the ocean, from the mythical city of Bordeaux to the more rural valleys of Corrèze, the south-west of France is a region which has managed to retain true authenticity, both in its art-of -living, its wine, its gastronomy and its rustic landscapes. Symbols which are the pride of its inhabitants and which attract tens of thousands of visitors every year who come to enjoy these precious natural and culinary treasures. While some have been able to exploit this windfall without worrying too much about their environmental impact, others have decided to go against the tide to prepare for a better future and safeguard what makes their identity.

The south-eastern France is a region famous throughout the world: whether for the mythical Côte d'Azur or the wilder beaches of Corsica, for its posh high mountain ski resorts, for the beautiful Provence and its lavender fields or its colorful towns, there are countless cultural, historical, gastronomic and natural assets that make this part of France one of the most dynamic in the country. Proud of their heritage and the attraction it arouses, some are trying by all means to protect it, from mass tourism, growing urbanization and overly productive agriculture.

The north-west of France is a region that multiplies identities, landscapes and terroirs. A richness that makes the pride of its inhabitants, anxious to preserve this heritage. A fight that is fought every day for our Green Heroes.

If France is the world's leading tourist destination, it is because it offers visitors landscapes and a culture that are unique in the world. But as elsewhere, urbanization, mass tourism and the standardization of production have endangered these national treasures. Faced with this observation, some are fighting to preserve what makes their identity and that of their region.

With almost 10 million km2, Canada is the second largest country in the world. A continental state which oscillates between the bustle of its large metropolises and the serenity of the immense wild plains, those which are home to a fauna and flora unique in the world. Canada is therefore full of natural resources that Green Heroes try to preserve every day.

In northern Europe, the Netherlands is a land of contrasts. Small in size, it is nevertheless home to one of the largest concentrations of inhabitants and wealth in the continent. Besides mills and tulips, the country is full of treasures such as its cheeses or its seafood that industrialization and mass trade unfortunately did not spare. Not to mention water, which has become the public enemy number one for this state located largely below its level. Faced with such an observation, dozens of Green Heroes have decided to take action to give back to their land and their products a new start.
