Moving the Planet in Boston :: Part 1
More than 2,000 “Moving Planet” clean-energy demonstrations took place today around the world on Saturday – at UN Headquarters in New York, in all 50 U.S. states and in 175 countries. “The planet has been stuck for too long with governments doing nothing about the biggest problem we’ve ever faced,” said Bill McKibben, founder of the nonprofit 350.org, the international climate campaign coordinating the demonstrations. The campaign is named after the safe upper concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, 350 parts per million. Right now, the atmosphere contains 392 ppm of the greenhouse gas. (more)
