Sie bilden eine acht Kilometer lange, grenzüberschreitende Menschenkette zwischen den Ortschaften Kerkwitz in Deutschland und Grabice in Polen. Diesen und weiteren Orten in der Lausitz droht die Abbaggerung für weitere Tagebaue. Die Grenzquerung erfolgte in Groß Gastrose, wo die Demonstranten in den Grenzfluss Neiße wateten und somit für eine geschlossene Kette sorgten. Initiiert wurde die Menschenkette vom lokalen Bündnis Klinger Runde, Greenpeace, BUND, Campact, den Naturfreunden Deutschlands, der Klima-Allianz, Berliner Energietisch, Anti-Atom Berlin, dem Arbeitskreis Öffentlichkeitsarbeit der Agenda 21 Gemeinde Schenkendöbern und der polnischen Bürgerinitiative Stowarzyszenie Nie Kopalniodkrywkowej.
