350.org is a grass roots movement to make world leaders lower carbon dioxide levels below 350ppm. To accomplish this goal, 350.org is calling on individuals worldwide to plan local events in their communities on 24 October 2009 (the International Day of Climate Action).
At each event, people will gather for a big group photo. 350.org will stitch photos from each event together into a visual petition that will be presented to world leaders in time for the UN's climate change conference taking place this December in Copenhagen.
With over 1000 gatherings already scheduled for the International Day of Climate Action (including a 2nd line thru the New Orleans French Quarter), chances are that a climate action event will be happening near you. If not, you can plan and hold your own event; just gather with a couple of friends this Saturday, shoot a photo & send it to 350.org.
