El cambio climático avanza imparable.
El CO2 ya está en 387 partes por millón en la atmósfera.
Tenemos que volver a un máximo de 350 ppm si queremos garantizar la habitabilidad futura del planeta.

Para llamar la atención sobre este crucial extremo, únete a la CARRERA CONTRACO2RRIENTE en la que "correremos" (bueno, vale, en realidad andaremos tranquilamente) ¡350 metros hacia atrás!

Partiremos a las 12:00 horas del sábado 24 de Octubre desde Gran Vía con Fuencarral para acabar 350 metros después, junto al mercado de Fuencarral. Toda la zona es peatonal.

¿Estás dispuesto a darlo todo por el planeta?
Ponte el dorsal que te adjuntamos y corre marcha atrás para mirar hacia delante.

Y como premio, regalamos olivos a los que cruzan la meta.

Organizado por Emisióncero, The Climate Project Spain y Democrats Abroad en apoyo a la campaña www.350.org

Democrats Abroad along with Emision Cero and The Climate Project will join the initiative sponsored by 350.org to celebrate the International Day of Climate Action. In support of President Obama´s environmental policies and conscious of the priority given to the control of climate change by the governments of the U.S., Spain, and other EU members, DA has joined 350.org in its worldwide initiative by organizing a race backwards in Madrid. 350.org takes its name from the ideal number of carbon dioxide in parts per million (ppm) that scientists have set as a safe upper limit in the atmosphere. The current 387 ppm of CO2 in the air we breathe today call for urgent action.

The march will take place backwards in the pedestrian stretch of Calle Fuencarral, an example of sustainable city living. It measures exactly 350 meters! It begins at 12:00 pm and will consist of marching or walking backwards the 350 meters from the start line at the corner of Fuencarral and Gran Vía to the finish line before the Mercado de Fuencarral. Marching or walking backwards will be a symbol of the need to go back to 350 ppm in order to achieve long-term climate stability. This march takes place the same day another 3769 events will be held in 163 countries around the world aimed at attracting the attention of our leaders in order to encourage them to come up with a new climate control treaty in Copenhagen.

The first backward marchers to arrive at the finish line will receive an olive tree sapling.
