GREEN REPORT

INTERNATIONAL DAY OF CLIMATE ACTION - OCT 24

On Oct. 24th, the International Day of Climate Action, people

from over 150 nations will come together in creative climate

actions to take a stand for 350 and a safe climate future. There

will be 1000s of creative on-the-ground actions everywhere from

the slopes of Mt. Everest to the underwater reefs of the Maldive

Islands to the streets of our biggest cities. All designed to

drive the 350 message into the human imagination -- and help our

leaders realize we need a real solution that pays attention to

the science.

It's the combination of in-the-flesh activism and online

organizing that will carry the day here. On Oct. 24, activists

will be uploading images of their events in real-time and we'll

be displaying them on 350.org and on the giant screens of Times

Square. By day's end, we'll have an unprecedented global gallery

of images and stories, enough to make both old media and new

ring out with this crucial number.

We need to make this viral movement go double viral (think Panda

sneezing) -- and so we need your help. In the last 18 months,

350 has moved from the pages of a scientific paper to the center

of a global movement. Now it's time to make that number...

count. We have a whole series of tools at http://350.org and

http://350.org/bloggers that you can use to spread the word, and

we're enormously grateful to you for doing so!

Onward,

Bill McKibben, co-founder, 350.org
