Pct 2

May 4^th | 9:00 am

In front of the Town Office Building 
1625 Massachusetts Ave, Lexington, MA

Change the 250^th Countdown Clock 
351 - 350!

Bring your own signs about 350ppm.

Join the LexCAN community as we change the 
250th Countdown Clock from 351 - 350!

In a climate-changing world, 350 is a very big number. At 350ppm (parts per million), we had a stable climate. As we have accelerated up to 424 ppm, the climate is disrupted and we can see the effects NOW. Lexington is counting down to our 250th celebration of the start of the American Revolution on the Lexington Green. LexCAN has the honor to change the clock to 350 to demonstrate we want ACTION NOW to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and reverse the damage by reaching to move us back down to 350 ppm.

Pickup for the Planet May 4^th – May12^th    

STEP 1: Choose a time to pick up trash in your neighborhood or a favorite place, like the beach.   

STEP 2: Take a trash inventory!
Count it  by the bag  or individual pieces so we know how much plastic, cans and paper you are taking out of nature. 

STEP 3: Send in a summary/pictures of # of pieces of plastic, whatever you would like to share. Bonus points for making recycled art! Send 
photos and summary to in...@lexcan.org 

STEP 4: Recycle what you can, and safely 
dispose of the rest.
