Getting the message across ... campaigners claim the proposed new coal-fired power station will emit between 6m-8m tonnes of CO2 a year Photograph: Henry Browne/freelancer

Climate camp will last 10 days, and is more than simple sloganeering. Real world eco-friendly solutions - from wind-powered laptops to solar-heated showers - are all on show.

Welcome to climate camp. Although the power station at Kingsnorth is due to be closed down and demolished, energy company E.ON is planning to build a new coal-fired power station on the same site. Campaigners want to 'kick start a campaign against a plan to build up to eight new coal-fired power stations in the UK'. Photograph: Daniel Berehulak/Getty
