Climate camp begins

It's 6am on Thursday 10th July. In five hours time, climate camp will officially "begin" but set up has been going on for the last 48 hours and already climate camp has made the front page of the Newcastle Herald, and the evening local news. This blog is going to be used by various climate camp participants to record this story, which might end up being a pivotal point in this nation's history... the moment at which the balance is tipped in favour of positive, effective and decisive action to move away from coal and spiralling greenhouse pollution, and towards a renewable and sustainble future.
