The primary reason for focusing on London is that they consider it the root cause of climate change. London is the hub of climate business, a representation of the unsuccessful political and economic systems that are causing catastrophe. London\u2019s tall building and flood plains also accounted in making it a site of concern to the Climate Campers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greendiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/climate-change-protesters-2_dWuW9_24429.jpg\" alt=\"climate change protesters 2\" title=\"climate change protesters 2\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Camp is open to all who are concerned about the environment. The weeklong camp will conduct climate and economics educational workshops, sustainable living and direct action discussion and training.
