The camp will be set up somewhere around the Firth of Forth in central
scotland - surrounded by coal-fired power stations, gas and oil
refineries, coal ports, open cast coal mines, corporate HQs, an airport,
a nuclear power station, a cement factory and oil terminals.

This camp will cut carbon emissions. Climate Camp Scotland will raise
the profile of direct action in Scotland, showing that the nature of the
climate crisis is such that we no longer have time to wait for our
political and business 'leaders' to act for us.

In addition, we aim to radicalise the political analysis of climate
change and its solutions, placing it within a wider political context of
social change and the reshaping of society towards more egalitarian and
libertarian values.

Join us in August to take action against the root causes of climate change!

Boiling Over - Scotland’s Gathering for Climate Action: 11th - 14th
June, The Phoenix Centre, Glasgow

Boiling Over will be a space for thought, analysis, learning, movement
building, training and creativity. Ultimately, we hope to develop a
strategy for stopping climate change from within Scotland.


Social Change not Climate Change

Despite years of rhetoric about Climate Change Bills, Kyoto Protocols,
Technofixes and Sustainability, CO2 emissions are still rising,
ecosystems are still collapsing and society is as unequal as ever. This
is testimony to the fact that we need to take matters into our own hands
and find bottom up solutions to climate chaos.


What’s happening?

The programme will include four days of talks, film showings and
discussion, culminating in planning and visioning sessions. We will
skill-share practical skills such as cooking for large numbers of people
and direct action trainings which will lay the foundations for the Camp
for Climate Action happening in Scotland from 3-10 of August.


Come along!

The space will be a safe, accessible and open environment, free from
oppression, hierarchy and discrimination. Food and accommodation will be
provided.
