RTP is a UK-wide direct action network campaigning for climate, social, and economic justice. We aim to build a broad based movement, working in solidarity with frontline communities to effectively confront environmentally destructive industries and the social and economic forces driving climate change. We have a decade-long history of supporting community resistance to fossil fuels, airport expansion, 'hostile environment' policies, and now Drax. More info about us can be found on our website.
This summer we're bringing hundreds of people together for a mass-action climate camp targeting Drax Power Station, a biomass power plant which is the UK's largest single emitter! Drax are the world's biggest burner of trees and a key driver of environmental racism. As a grassroots network of volunteers, we don't have any regular funds or fundrasining staff. We need funds to cover essential equipment hire, inluding marquees, toilets, and transport for our camp. Support like yours makes a real different to what we can do collectively. £10 will support subsidised travel for one person to the camp £20 will subsidise food for someone on low/no-income £90 will pay for a mobilisation talk or a 'Know Your Rights' training ahead of the camp £100 will cover one toilet on camp for one day £300 will cover our expenses to run workshops £1,000 will pay for our solar power needs By donating to our crowdfunder, you will be supporting hundreds of people from across the country (and further afield) to hold five days of workshops, communal living and mass-action to fight the greenwashing, environmental destruction, and racism of Drax. Attendance will be free for all, supported by the donations given here. Join us from 8th to 13th August! Location still to be announced.
