What’s Important About 350?

by Peggy on July 6th, 2008

It’s Sunday, and I’m trying to recover from being in a wedding. You know how exhausting that is, right? Put on your bridesmaid dress and let someone put way more hair spray in your hair than should be legal. But it’s all to make the bride happy.

So, why am I talking about this? Our atmosphere is also a little exhausted! And a group called 350.org is trying to change that. I learned about them from No Impact Man, and thought I should spread the word.

The goal of 350.org is to put more pressure on our political leaders to act to reverse climate change. Why 350? It’s the “red line” we’ve passed in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. We’ve exceeded 350 parts per million, and we need to get back down.

Learn more at 350.org and watch the 90-second cartoon below. It’s not depressing. It gets jazzy toward the end.
