Day 350: International Day of Climate Action
In 2008, NASA climatologist James Hansen and his team produced a landmark series of studies that showed that if we let the amount of carbon in the atmosphere top 350 parts per million, we can’t have a planet “similar to the one on which civilization developed and to which life on earth is adapted.” We’re currently at 390 parts per million. On October 24, people in more than 1000 communities around the globe will take action to make the number 350 visible to everyone.
