What is the general feeling in Ireland at present toward the first Irish "climate camp", is there much awareness of the event, are much people organising things, the programme already looks quite impressive, i see Duncan Stewart is facilitating a discussion one of the days.
Overall, there seems to be not such a high level of discussion about climate camp, as strategy, tool, movement... etc
Just interested in seeing what peoples feelings, hopes, dreams are...
Thanks to all who are and have been organising to bring things were they are today...
By the way, seeing as there will be goings on in Offaly, any chance of getting Mundy down, and a few of his music mates, to play a few tunes and keep the sprits high?
As ever, Im hoping for, and even more so now feeling its possible, that post tiger Ireland will awaken and truly create a "green isle"

Turf cutting will cease on 4% of the country's bogs between now and 2014, according to the Department of Environment, Heritage & Local Government.
Speaking at a Dáil committee, Mr Conor O' Reilly said that this represents 35,000 hectares from a total of 850,000 hectares.
He told the environment committee that one third of the designated area is already owned by the State.
