***Louisville 350.org Climate Change Rally***

The Louisville 350 Coalition -- dozens of environmental, peace, and social justice groups -- will hold a 350 event on Waterfront Park's Great Lawn on Saturday, October 24 at 2:30PM, as part of that day's worldwide effort to bring public awareness to the consequences of global climate change.

Scientists believe that 350 parts per million (ppm) is a safe level of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the Earth's atmosphere. The current level is 387 ppm. At the current rate of increasing emissions, scientists predict that the level will reach 487 ppm within 50 years, and create climate chaos that may be irreversible. It is everyone's responsibility to take action now for a sustainable future.

We will assemble for music, speakers, exhibits, puppets, and, at 3:50PM, spell out “350” with our bodies and be photographed by an aerial flyover.

Come be part of the solution! Everyone is welcome!
