"350" Global Warming Day of Action this Saturday, 1:30 p.m. at John Bryan

Dear Friends,

Thanks again for your support of real action to curb global warming. The big day -- Saturday the 24th -- is almost here! On 10/24, people at more than 3500 actions in 161 countries (and counting!) will come out to show world leaders they are serious about action on climate change. Specifically, they're showing their support for the number "350:" the number of parts per million atmospheric carbon dioxide that leading climate scientists believe is safe for our planet. (For more on the subject, please visit the 350 movement's home page at www.350.org).

Every group will do something creative to show the number 350, and the compiled photographs will form a visual petition to the world leaders who will meet in Copenhagen in December to decide the future of global warming policy. (A cool recent side-development is that, following the Day of Action, these pictures will also be displayed on the gigantic screen in Times Square!)

In Greene County, we're going to gather at one of Ohio's most beautiful parks, John Bryan, to spell the number 350 with ourselves. Your participation is your presence -- it's a fun and simple way to help make a big statement for real action on climate change! Need a Ride? There will be a shuttle from the library starting at 1pm.

The event shall go forth rain or shine; right now the forecast says there might be some showers, so bring your windbreakers and warm sweaters!

Hope to see you there with your friends, neighbors and family!

Thanks again,

Sehvilla Mann
