Wake Up, Freak Out - then Get a Grip
It's much, much later than you think
This really isn't about polar bears any more. At this very moment, the fate of civilization itself hangs in the balance. It turns out that the way we have been calculating the future impacts of climate change up to now has been missing a really important piece of the picture. It seems we are now dangerously close to the tipping point in the world's climate system; this is the point of no return, after which truly catastrophic changes become inevitable.

disobedient!
voices for climate justice
Several thousand people gather in the German liginite mining area (rhineland) for protests saying “here and no further”, and demanding a phase out of coal power. In massive actions of civil disobedience they interfere with the infrastructure of the coal industry. Hope arises where people take their own destiny into their own hands. In “disobedience” people from the climate movement talk about why they demand climate justice and why they consider a breach of rules as necessary and legitimate.

Here and no further!” and commits civil disobedience taking the transition towards a climate just society into its own hands.

voices from the Camp for Climate Action 2006
Climate change is now a reality. Leading scientists across the world agree that in a 'business as usual scenario' we have no longer than 10 years to prevent 2-3 degrees of additional global warming that will lead to irreversible climatic changes with dramatic consequences for our planet.

In the summer of 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 in Yorkshire / UK.
