***Olympic Sculpture Park & Cascadia work party***
24 October 2009 - 9:00am
Demonstrate your commitment to climate change action with a morning of service followed by a group 350 photo! Please join Cascadia Region Green Building Council, along with Sustainable Belltown/Belltown Community Council, at the Olympic Sculpture Park at 9am. We'll work to clean up the park and surrounding area and stop to take a 350 photo at noon. If you have snorkels, masks, and/or fins, bring them for the photo. Following the photo, we'll be given a tour of OSP's sea level rise display.
PLEASE RSVP FOR THE WORK PARTY HERE:

IF YOU CANNOT MAKE THE WORK PARTY, we'd still love to include you in the 350 PHOTO! Arrive by 11:50 and walk to the west edge of the park, along the water, where we will take the photo at noon. Then stay for the guided tour of the sea level rise display.

After a mid-day break, everyone is encouraged to head to Seattle Center's International Fountain & Alki Room to join the city-wide 350 event. Activities there begin at 2:00.

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?
