Summer of Seven Camps: Update about climate action camps in Europe
zo, 23/04/2017 - 00:14 — nnHier kun je discussieren over Summer of Seven Camps: Update about climate action camps in Europe.
A lot of camps go with actions that draw a red line. To show: until here and no further – it's up to us to mark the end of destruction!
Information about camps and actions can be found on the respective websites or – at a glance - on the website of the climate justice action network: www.cja.net

*Climate Camp close to Vienna airport, Austria, May 24-28*
*Aviation is a red line*
Our struggle focuses on the need to shrink fossil airtravel and associated (infra)structures as well as questioning the everpresent focus on "green" growth. Very recent, there has been some major victory, since the Federal Adminstrative Court ruled against the building of the 3rd runway at Vienna airport, regarding the legal acknowledgement of climate change as a more important factor than some questionable jobs. But since then, local industry and politics are running heavily against the decision. We will continue to fight against airport expansion and for system change. Welcome!
Aviation expansion is a red line – and red lines are not to be crossed! To show this, we will have a big Red Lines Action on the 27th of May – close to the airport and with some noise and bicycles! Come all to our climate camp to get more details and participate!

*Lausitzcamp on Tour, Lusatia coalfields, Eastern Germany/Poland, May 21-28*
The big Ende Gelände actions are in the Rhineland coalfields this year, but resistance must go on in Lusatia, too. This summer (May 21 – 28), we are not camping in one place, but put our tents on bikes and cycle through the mining region in Eastern Germany and Poland, visiting local anti-coal initiatives on our way - connecting the dots, growing the movement. There is no English website yet – get in touch for more information: info@lausitzcamp.info

*Mass climate civil disobedience action in the port of Amsterdam, Netherlands, June 22-June 26th*
Something is brewing in the Western harbour of Amsterdam, the world's largest gasoline harbor and Europe's second largest coal port. Code Rood, a new coalition calls for a massive civil disobedience action in and around the Port of Amsterdam on June 24th. We have no patience anymore. We give the power to the people and draw a red line against the fossil fuel industry! There will also be a climate action camp from Thursday June 22 to Monday June 26. Come as early as possible to prepare well! More info will come soon.

A mass action of civil disobedience (Ende Gelände) to block the mining infrastrucutre. A red line action around the Hambach Forest. And lots more! From August 18 – 29, there will be camp space(s) for networking, education, arts and actions… and trying out tomorrow’s society right now – social, ecological and based on grassroots democracy. At the camp the Degrowth Summer School will take place for the third time, where the concept of degrowth is put into action: By learning practical skills and analyzing political and economic developments.
