Swange Protection Camp

It's amazing what a group of folk, many of whom didn't know each other, can get achieved in pursuit of a cause they all think worthy. Today we spent the day at the Swanage Protection Camp in Purbeck, building a pallet shelter for the on site protectors. By sunset most of the structure was complete, four walls, wooden floor and a board roof, all ready to be clad in tarps. It was an uplifting experience. 

Here's a link to the protection camp page, if you can and if you want to, please show them what ever support you can and that their actions to protect this beautiful environment are appreciated. If you pass that way you could pop in and show them your support in person, I know you'd be welcomed. 

Protect Purbeck!

To me Purbeck is a magical landscape through which ancient voices echo, I hold it special, sacred. Purbeck is a rare and beautiful natural jewel, World Heritage Site and geological wonder, which for the most part has avoided the destruction of modern times. Now though it's under threat from oil prospectors, who plan to start exploratory drilling in the coming months. And, even though there is plenty of local opposition, and the continued pursuit of fossil fuels can only lead to accelerated climate change, those greedy hollow-men who stand to profit, wish to continue down that dark road and spoil our land. An exploration licence has been granted and the prospecting defilers plan to move in soon. In light of which a protection camp has been set up to what can be done to defend this beautiful land from desecration.

If you pass that way you could pop in nd show them your support in person, I'm sure they'd like that. Thank you.
