The 2017 climate camp near the town of Erkelenz in North Rhine-Westphalia with Greenpeace Germany's energy campaigner Karsten Smid and the Degrowth Summer School. The camp runs from August 18 to 29.

The Climate Camp has taken place in Rhineland since 2010, in the lignite mining area. This coal field is the biggest emitter of carbon dioxide in all of Europe. Still people are forced to resettle and villages and landscapes are destroyed, all for coal mining.
