Come to the Great Lawn at Waterfront Park on Saturday, October 24, 2:30-5:30pm as the Louisville 350 Coalition brings the International Day of Climate Action to town The Louisville 350 Coalition, an affiliation of local environmental, peace, and social justice groups, will hold a 350 event on the Great Lawn Waterfront Park Saturday, October 24 at 2:30 -5:30 pm as part of a worldwide effort to bring public awareness to the consequences of global  climate change. See louisville.sierraclub.org/350 for more information. We will assemble and spell out "350" with our bodies at 3:50 PM.  There will be music, speakers, exhibits, puppets, and an aerial flyover to take a photo for the worldwide 350 event.  Come be part of the solution!  Everyone is welcome!   280 parts per million (ppm) of atmospheric Green House Gases       (GHG) was the global norm before the Industrial Revolution.     350 ppm of GHG is the safe upper limit, say the scientific experts.   386 ppm of GHG is the approxi- mate current concentration.   600 ppm of GHG could be our future by 2050 if we don't curb the rate of growth of GHG emissions by taking full advantage of solu- tions for improving energy effi- ciency and using renewable energy.      Which path do you choose: A life sustaining world- or a climate of chaos and destruction? learn more at  - www.350.org   Sponsors Include Sponsors include Appalachian Science in the Public Interest (ASPI), Bike Couriers Bike Shop, Bluegrass Green Co., Cultivating Connections, Earthsave Louisville, Fellowship of Reconciliation (FOR), Greater Louisville Sierra Club, Green Convene, Green List Louisville, Interfaith Paths to Peace, Kentuckians For The Commonwealth (KFTC), Kentucky Resources Council (KRC), Kentucky Solar Partnership (KSP), Kentucky Waterways Alliance, Louisville Climate Action Network (LCAN), Louisville Grows, Louisville Peace Action Committee (LPAC), Louisville Peak Oil Group, Parkside Bike Boutique, Passionist Earth and Spirit Center, Peace and Justice Division of the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky, Saint William Catholic Church, Thomas Jefferson Unitarian Church, Transition Louisville.   For more information Contact Drew Foley, [bdr...@yahoo.com] or 502-644-0659 (cell)   Also coming soon . . .   October 16 - 18  Free and Open to the Public See www.bb2009.org for details!
