Ecology Generation () is, together with the Greens (Les Verts), the Independent Ecological Movement and Citizenship, Action, Participation for the 21st Century (CAP21), one of the four "green" parties in France. Founded by Brice Lalonde in 1990, upon the suggestion of François Mitterrand, it describes itself as a club with cross-party alliances of green-minded politicians and public servants. France Gamerre replaced Brice Lalonde as leader and she aimed to run in the French presidential election, 2007. Like her predecessor, she failed to win the 500 endorsements.
