On October 24, 2009, the Mountains Group of the Sierra Club will join people around the world calling for significant reduction in the atmospheric carbon dioxide causing global warming.
The 350 Climate Rally and Walk will offer educational material about climate change and the need to reduce our global carbon amount to 350 parts per million in order to keep a balanced environment.
The public is invited to the event. It starts at 10 a.m. at the south parking lot of Lake Gregory in Crestline, and signs concerning the number 350 and other environmental images and posters are welcome. After the rally, the group will walk around Lake Gregory, stopping twice to hear how global warming will affect our lakes and mountains. Activities are scheduled to end by noon.
Members of environmental groups who would like to speak about Global Warming or 350 parts per million should contact Sue Walker at svwalker@gmail.com.
