350 : 24Oct International Day of Climate Action

24 Oct 2009. Make a stand. Take an action - using the number 350!

Why 350? In a brief, 350 is the number that leading scientists say is the safe upper limit for carbon dioxide—measured in "Parts Per Million" in our atmosphere. We have actually already exceeded that number. Climate change affects everybody, and so, everybody has a responsibility to help lower that number. Check out the video below :



Of course, there's alot more to this issue of climate change. To find out more, check out 350.org.
Below is an "Action Map" of the world, where there are actions organised by concerned people in their respective countries.
