The International Day of Climate Action is intended as a grassroots movement to bring awareness to this issue because there is a big conference in Copenhagen in December. The has been talk that the participants will consider setting the accepted limit at 450 parts per million rather than trying to contain the damage that has already been done. Austin is part of this movement how could it not be? and the local group, http://austin350.org, is planning their event for October 24. According to their website, the austin350 members will be participating in an unconference on sustainability. Location is yet to be announced. The week before the International Day of Climate Action, they are asking for people to participate in some form of alternative transportation at least once. So take a moment and see what you can do to be involved!
