350: The magic number
October 28th 2008 04:32
If you're interested in climate change haven't visited 350.org, then you should.
The site, and the organisation behind it are named after scientific research showed that irreversible damage will be caused to the planet unless we can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to below 350 parts per million.
The organisation is run by a group mostly consisting of young Americans who are passionate about tackling climate change. The site, which is available in ten languages, has a multitude of features including a fantastic short animation explaining why climate change is a problem and how to fix it (see below), a page explaining the science of climate change which includes links to relevant papers, a frequently asked questions page, and a list of ways you can take action in your community.
Visit www.350.org to see it all for yourself.
