Aerial Photography, Wacky Walk, Food, Fun and Prizes
24 October 2009 - 8:00am
A year ago, one of the world’s leading climatologists, NASA’s James Hansen, and his team produced a landmark series of studies.
They showed that 350 parts per million CO2 in the atmosphere is the safe limit for humanity.
The bad news is we’re already past that number - we’re at 390 parts per million, which is why the Arctic is melting, why drought is spreading across the planet, why humanity is facing perhaps its greatest challenge ever.
The good news: that number gives us a target to aim for.
On 24th Oct, be heard, seen and felt in fun and meaningful activities that will spread this urgent message!
Aerial Photography / 8am / at Hong Lim Park
At 8am, hundreds of us will gather at Hong Lim Park to use our bodies to form the number '350' - the safe limit for CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. A boom lift will raise our photographer 12m into the air to capture this mass formation.
(The nearest MRT to Hong Lim Park is Clarke Quay station.)
Wacky Walk / 10am / from Hong Lim Park to SMU
From Hong Lim Park, we will then make our way to SMU. This relaxing mini walkathon should take approximately half an hour.
*(Do note that costumes and placards are not allowed.)
Prizes, Fodd and more Fun / 11am to 3pm / at SMU
Stand a chance to win prizes in a lucky draw!
All registrants will also receive a Certificate of Participation.
Enjoy a delicious spread of vegan vegetarian cuisine from Loving Hut
(all participants will receive a Free Food Voucher for use on that day, kindly sponsored by Loving Hut.)
Learn more about what each of us can do to curb climate change. Make a pledge to take action!
Note:
Participants please bring your own drinking water.

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?
