What is ecoCamp anyway?

ecoCamp is a Barcamp about the environment and sustainability which aims to bring bright minds together to discuss, learn, brainstorm, network and create valuable conversations that can change the world! Why not, we like to think big.
More info and background to ecoCamp on our official page.
Contact us at ecocampteam@googlemail.com

ecoCamp is partner event of be2camp, the UK's (possibly the world's) first 'unconference' focused on Web 2.0 and the built environment.
