Join a really important effort to stop global warming at www.350.org. It's
a new global campaign focused on making sure the world takes the kind of
big, bold, fast action that we need to solve this crisis.
Here's the situation:
- The science of climate change is getting darker by the day. The Arctic
is melting away with astonishing speed, decades ahead of schedule.
Everything on the planet seems to be melting or burning, rising or
parched. No surprise there--scientists tell us that the safe level of
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is 350 parts per million, and we're at
389 and rising.
- But there's good news: we're not cooked yet, and THIS YEAR we have an
opportunity to make a real impact. In December, the nations of the world
will be meeting to craft a global treaty designed to help the world act
together to solve global warming. The terms of this treaty may well
determine whether we actually save the planet from climate change, so it's
up to all of us to make sure we get it right.
- But nobody's going to do it for us--we all need to step up here. Here's
how you can help: people all over the world are coming together to create
an International Day of Action on October 24th through the website
350.org. The goal is to take a united stand to get the planet--and
ourselves--back to 350 out of this huge mess. If we're loud enough all
over the world, we can really make a difference.
- We need as many events as possible, all over the world! You can
register your event at http://www.350.org/oct24
- Why 350? Find out in this fun 90-second video clip:

Thanks everyone--with your help, 2009 is going to be BIG.
