    • ]]>     Today, www.350.org are staging the largest day of environmental action in history.  Over 2500 events are going on around the world.

    What is 350?  It is the number (in parts per million, or ppm) scientists say is the highest level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere where we will be able to avoid human and natural disaster due to climate change.  At the moment the level of CO2 in the air is 390ppm, which is way too high.  To bring this down to safe levels we need politicians to take action now, to switch our energy supplies from fossil fuels to renewable energy.

    To find an event near you, go to http://www.350.org/map.
