There have been gatherings every year since then. ICAN involves a small voluntary group of people with a common interest in nature and its conservation. Our annual camp temporarily puts into action those things that will eventually be permanent on land we hope to purchase. These include such things as solar panel making and wildlife pond conservation. The Camps involve helping with conservation projects such as examining small-scale renewable energy production, pond making, and tree planting etc.
Furniture is made from recycled wood, and ovens made from clay.
In some ways it would be a smaller version of the Welsh Centre fro Alternative Technology, but more diverse. To date the annual gatherings have united thousands of people from over 20 countries from all walks of life. There is at least one every year, which run for around a month during the summer.

We also plan water pumping, recycling projects and a live Internet link with international environmental organisations and, of course, to continue to educate others to use energy in environmentally friendly ways.
