Blasting has begun on Coal River Mountain. Increased campaign efforts to stop blasting are currently underway, and Climate Ground Zero has now begun accepting applications for its Winter Action Camp – January 4th-25th.

The camp will involve multiple intensive training tracks, such as action media, legal support, and other skills relevant for this campaign and future actions, and for your campaigns back home. Climate Ground Zero welcomes 30 people chosen by application to take part in the camp.  We are unfortunately unable to accommodate all applicants due to our training and living capacity–we must limit the camp to thirty people.

Taking part in the camp is a three-week, full-time, commitment. Come prepared to work.  A sliding fee between $50-$200 is requested, as your food and housing will be provided. Nobody, however, will be turned away for lack of funds. We are looking for people interested in every role of this action camp – cooks, action medics, climbers, hikers, and more. We prefer people who have had previous action experience, especially those interested in using the skills to build the movement. It will also be important that all of those applying should be comfortable living communally with forty or more other people.

We will not tolerate harassment of any kind and reserve the right to remove anyone at any time.
