Tomorrow - 350 International Day of Climate Action

On the other side of the world, the 350 International Day of Climate Action has already begun. Rallies calling for real action on climate change and its impact on the world's poor have been held from the Great Pyramids to the Great Coral Reef. In a few hours, it's our turn.

Join us under partly sunny skies tomorrow (October 24) for the International Day of Climate Action at the Minnesota State Capitol from 12 PM - 1 PM. It will be a historic gathering calling for agreements to cut pollution and invest in international adaptation to help those most at risk cope with climate change. This nonpartisan rally has grown to include:

Entertainment from:
Absolute Gruv (11:30 PM - Noon)

Fair Trade Coffee from:
Peace Coffee

Speakers include:
Congressman Keith Ellison
Congresswoman Betty McCollum
State Senator Ellen Anderson
State Representative Jeremy Kalin
State Representative Kate Knuth

The event is organized and sponsored by Augsburg College, Oxfam America, Will Steger Foundation, and 1 Sky. Get complete details, including bike routes to the capitol, at our page on 350.org.
