Climate Camp 2007, Sipson Field, Heathrow, London, UK. 19/08/07.
Climate Camp 2007 protesters gather in a field just north of Heathrow Airport to protest at the second Climate Camp. They assemble with the support of local residents who are bitterly opposed to the building of a third runway by the British Airports Authority. On Sunday, 19th August 2007, the climate camp send out 'decoy' protests while reserving a large climate protest ready to carry out the main action. The group exit the camp and march out across a bean field toward BAA (British Airports Authority) headquarters in order to blockade the authority and bring national attention to the environment and climate debate. After an hour of confrontations with police dressed in riot armour, they successfully carry out the protest at BAA's HQ. Climate Camp, Heathrow, London. 19th August 2007. Copyright Terence Bunch.
