Last year's camp in the UK
In 2006 in the UK, over 600 people converged on a field in Yorkshire for 10 days, and held over 100 workshops, ranging from alternative technology to the Kyoto Protocol to non-violent direct action training. They made decisions collectively, without 'leaders', and produced their own energy using solar panels, biodiesel, and a wind turbine. Many of them used also used the camp as a base for non-violent direct action against industrial polluters such as Drax, the largest coal-fired power station in the UK.

That's just typical of the youth of today. No respect for authority.
