Creative Ideas
Often, the best ways to get people's attention are quirky, creative, and completely different - here are just a few fun ideas for building the buzz about 350 where you live.
Hopefully they'll get you thinking about what new and different tactics might capture the attention of your community!
Just to be clear, we do not advocate any illegal graffiti or other defacement of private property. :)

Flier a local event - head to concerts, festivals, and other celebrations with fliers about your action in hand. It's a good way to find new volunteers and have fun while you're at it! |
 |
Sidewalk chalk - ask 'what is 350?' in sidewalk chalk all down Main Street and get people thinking. |
 |
Poster the town - print out posters or make your own, and then head to local coffee shops, bulletin boards, and anywhere else you can put up posters in town. |
 |
Fun with stencils - print out this on sturdy paper, find scissors or an exacto knife (please be careful!) and make your own stencil. You can then get some paint and anything you want to stencil, and create your own 350 materials! Good things to stencil include bags, t-shirts, hats, and signs. |
 |
Public art - if there's a way to incorporate 350 into a public piece of art such as a mural, this can be a great way to inspire and spread the word. |
 |
Baking at 350 - some friends in the U.S. made a point by bringing cookies baked at 350 degrees F (which looked great) and at 450 degrees F (burnt to a crisp) to illustrate what may happen to our planet |
 |
350 Lingerie - university students hung out 350 socks and underwear to raise awareness about 350 |

Build the Buzz on-line - post it to your Twitter feed, Digg it, update your Facebook status, or your personal blog. |
