Travellers still face abuse in Scotland, and serving alcohol a short walk from the family's home risks increased harassment. This is a dangerous precedent. If a brewery is more important than ancient woodlands, many other developments will be too.

❗An ancient woodland in Pitlochry is at risk from a proposed brewery and taproom. The McPhee family who live within the woodland are Travellers who were settled there as part of a forced assimilation project which has been called ‘cultural genocide’ in an official report.

We will not hold a camp this summer, taking time for a wee pause to regroup, reflect and recharge. We need to make sure how we organise is sustainable for our organisers, and that we put our efforts towards the best tactics in a rapidly shifting political era.

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 12/05/2026
Since 2021, we have held a camp each year, laying siege to fossil fuel infrastructure, rebuilding our movement, connecting struggles, and laying the groundwork for mass direct action against those destroying our planet. This year, we are taking a break.
THIS YEAR WE ARE TAKING A BREAK

Fences say "go away, I own this land, no tresspassing!" But fences can become treehouses, towers, shelters, barricades, kitchens, art spaces... The best part is: after you take and repurpose the fences, they put up more. The more walls they build, the more material we have to tear them down. (8/9)

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Climate justice will never be handed to us from above. We will build it with our own hands from the fences they put up to keep us out. So hauns affa torry! And solidarity with all around the world fighting to defend their land and community. (6/9)

The "Energy Transition Zone" is a massive government funded landgrab backed by oil baron Ian Wood, which has nothing to do with renewable energy, but threatens the last green space of Torry's working class community. (4/9)

Using bike locks, expanding foam, paint, and a good old wrench, we also took on the vehicles and machines in the park that are turning the thriving wetland into an industrial wasteland. (3/9)

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Last night, we said no further. We dismantled fences to liberate walking paths, and sabotaged machinery to stop the destruction of St Fitticks Park. Using fences designed to lock out the community, we took them and repurposed them to build structures making vehicles access more difficult. (2/9)

St Fitticks Park is under attack. We held two camps in the beautiful St Fitticks Park in Torry. But in November, permission was given to begin its destruction. The time has come to fulfil our solidarity with the people of Torry. 🗓️ From 9-11 January 2026 👉 Sign up now: climatecamp.scot

The "Energy Transition Zone" must be stopped, St Fittick's Park must be protected. Let's prepare together to take direct action.

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 30/11/2025
This should not surprise anyone, as the "Energy Transition Zone" is backed by "Sir" Ian Wood, an oil and gas billionaire who is keen on keeping his profits rolling. (4/5)

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 30/11/2025
In truth, the "Energy Transition Zone" is a massive greenwashing scam that does not address climate breakdown, but puts forth false solutions designed to keep fossil fuel extraction going. (3/5)

A contractor has now set up to start the demolition of St Fitticks Park. All for a so-called "Energy Transition Zone" that is nothing but a cover for an oil billionaire to expand his fossil investments. (1/5)

We are calling for Aberdeen Council to finally listen to the people of Torry. If you don't: Prepare for direct action.

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 08/11/2025
Torry is fighting back: our friends received legal advice that the land comprising St Fittick’s Park is held as part of the Lands of Torry Trust for the benefit of ‘education’ and the ‘poor’. This means that Aberdeen City Council may not use the land for commercial property. (3/4)

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 08/11/2025
On Thursday, Aberdeen City Council yet again ignored the people of Torry to side with the "Energy Transition Zone" and cleared the way for the burn of St Fittick's Park to be destroyed. (2/4)

The campaign also needs time to slow down the ETZ destroying the park. We are preparing for direct action. The fossil fuel lobby must be stopped. Torry’s working class community and their natural environment must be defended. Contact us now if you are able to defend St Fittick’s Park.

The Torry community are still fighting. Friends of St Fittick's Park are drawing up plans for legal action against Aberdeen City Council, and they say that given the legal advice received, they have a real chance of winning against council, big business and the fossil fuel lobby.

The "Energy Transition Zone" or ETZ is backed by oil billionaire Ian Woods. The label is used to explore carbon capture and storage designed to keep oil and gas running. The side effects: a community loses their last accessible greenspace, St Fittick's Park, a beautiful #biodiversity hub.

Climate Camp Scotland @scotclimatecamp.bsky.social · 05/11/2025
This is it. Tomorrow, #Aberdeen City Council is considering approval of the first phase of the demolition of St Fittick's Park to make space for the "Energy Transition Zone". Friends of St Fittick's Park are calling for a rally tomorrow at 9am outside of city hall - come and support them.

The fossil fuel industry, with the backing of oil billionaires and the Scottish government, is set to destroy St Fitticks Park to build a so-called 'Energy Transition Zone'. We will stand in solidarity with the people of Torry and we will take down the ETZ, whatever it takes.

Get fascism out of Glasgow! Today Climate Camp Scotland joined the mobilisations in Glasgow to show that UKIP’s racism and islamophobia is not welcome. The racist agenda of this “mass deportation” demo must be opposed wherever it rears it's head.

(4/6) INEOS has fired hundreds of Scottish workers but expands shipments of fracked gas from indigenous land and working class communities in the US, despite Scotland banning fracking themselves.
