Yorkshire (UK) summer 2006. 600 people set up a Camp for Climate Action in the shadow of one of the biggest C02 emitters in Europe: Drax coal-fired power station. With over 100 workshops, the 10 day camp was a space of collective learning, sustainable living and taking direct action on the root causes of climate change. The gathering culminated in a day of protest in an attempt to shut down Drax.
