The Camp for Climate Action will be an inspiring six days of workshops and grassroots direct action aimed at stopping the expansion of the world's biggest coal port in Newcastle. The Australian Climate Camp is one of seven being held around the world in July and early August 2008.
Climate change is the biggest threat to our future, and coal is the biggest cause of climate change, yet the Australian coal industry is still expanding. We need real action to keep fossil fuels in the ground - and we're running out of time! One thing is certain, we can't wait for Governments or the fossil fuel industry to solve the climate crisis. We must start to create the change we want to see ourselves.
The camp is a collaboration between environment groups, community organizations, student groups, and individuals.- hopefully now including you! Groups already involved include Friends of the Earth Australia, Rising Tide, the Australian Student Environment Network and individuals from local climate action groups.
The camp will include workshops, opportunities to learn, develop skills and share stories. It aims to be an inspiring example of a sustainable and participatory community and will culminate in a mass, non-violent direct action focussed on the root causes of climate change. |
