Observing the environment has been George’s passion since he was a child. Living in the most glorious wilderness areas, he learnt the importance to consider his surroundings. When moving back to Europe, he realised many young people did not have the opportunity to immerse in their environment. Associating with conservation partners and individuals, he started Environmental Consideration Project non profit to provide a place to enjoy and learn from nature.

Nestled in the south of France, the Project’s mission was simple : to share with others a wonderfully fascinating and diverse habitat – the ‘Garrigue’, a low shrubland mixed with patches of oak forest biome. Low rainfall, long summer droughts and hot summer temperatures create a superbly resilient ecosystem.

With Environmental Consideration Project, you will discover and understand these systems and find the hidden traces of wild fauna.
