The Champs Elysees was turned into a huge farm on Sunday with plots of plants, trees and flowers laid out on Paris' most famous avenue to focus attention on France's crisis-hit agriculture. Dubbed Nature Capital, the event is expected to draw two million people over the next two days and is organised by the Young Farmers association and the French forest industry. Duration: 01:17

  • What a great idea. I went to the local farmers' market yesterday, slightly smaller scale than this (not everyone has lost touch with how vegetables are grown - sweeping statements don't help anyone).

  • 0:25 to make people know exactly how the vegetable is grown. To create the link between the consumer and producer so they can understand our problems. Capitalism prohibits that link. That's why the labor force consists of fragmented specialists, none of whom could built technology from scratch. This is a proof how the Capitalists control the society by forbidding free speech.
