KEEN 350 Challenge
Location
KEEN Inc. is an outdoor company that makes footwear, bags and sox to support a hybridlife style. At the core of our company values are being socially and environmentally responsible in our business practices and striving to give back to the greater good in the way our employees engage in the community, support organizations and causes.
KEEN friends and family gathered on the 350th day of the year at 3:50pm to spread the word about 350.org.
Despite being one of the coldest days of the year we had 70 people walk 350 meters to a 350.org presentation and happy hour to celebrate and spread the message about 350.
Each of the 70 attendees left with a cozy pair of KEEN socks to wear, plus a pair (with a 350.org message attached to them) to pass on to a friend.
Additionally KEEN will donate $1 for each person in attendance to the Oregon Community Cycling Center in support of carbon free transportation.

Understanding 350
- So, what is global warming and what's the problem anyway?
- And what does this 350 number even mean?
- If we're already past 350, are we all doomed?
- How do we create the political change to steer towards 350?
- How do we get the world on track to get to 350?
- How do we actually reduce carbon emissions to get to 350??
- Will this thing work? Will world leaders listen?
- Where did this 350 number come from?
- Isn't America the biggest source of the problem? What about China and India?
- 350 is just a number. Wouldn't "Climate Emergency" or "Clean Energy Now" be a better call to action?
- And what about all the other targets people are aiming for?
- Why October 24th?
- Why another organization--there are already too many things going on!
- Do you measure 350 in CO2 or CO2e?
