On the October 24th, 2009 people from all around the world will be organizing an action incorporating the number 350 at an iconic place in their community. The images of these actions will be delivered to the media and world leaders. Together, the climate crusaders across the world will be showing the world and its leaders how big, beautiful and unified the climate movement is.
The world will be seeing a movement of enormous proportion across the different parts of the world. Be a part of it!
Science clearly tells us that only dramatic action can prevent global warming and its catastrophic impacts -- and the world is looking to President Obama to lead the way. Scientists say that if industrialized countries like the US reduce their global warming pollution by 25-40% (below 1990 levels) in the next decade, we may still be able to pass on a safe climate to our children. But time is running out.
350 is the number that leading scientists say is the safe upper limit for carbon dioxide—measured in "Parts per Million" in our atmosphere. 350 PPM—it's the number humanity needs to get back to as soon as possible to avoid runaway climate change.

But organizing such an international movement against climate change, we hope to reach out to the world leaders and decision makers to show our concern for a bright and safe world to live in.
This is like a final exam for human beings. Can we muster the courage, the commitment, and the creativity to set this earth on a steady course before it's too late? October 24 will be the joyful, powerful day when we prove it's possible.
