Tomorrow you can take <20 minutes to help send a message to the world in
support of climate change policy.*

Is awareness-raising for specific issues and political demonstration
service?  Well, that's a matter of opinion.

-Sophie

*you could also spend 20 minutes reading up on the news, or you could spend
hours and hours on an analytic paper about causal stories and problem
definition in climate change advocacy like I've been doing...
grumblegrumble.

Subject: MIT 350 climate change rally - 10/23, noon, Killian Court
To: random-hall-talk@mit.edu


*Join the MIT 350 climate change rally on Friday*
(at the same time as Obama's MIT speech!)
*
*What: Form the shape "<350" by standing together

When*: *Friday, Oct. 23rd, 12-12:20pm

Where: Killian Court (if rain: Lobby 10)

Why:
- Show negotiators for the UN Copenhagen Climate Conference that we support
international action toward a safe atmospheric carbon concentration of 350
ppm by sending them a picture of our "<350" human design taken from above.

- Listen to audio broadcast of President Obama's speech (or bring your
laptop to watch) and help remind him of the importance of a strong climate
change mitigation strategy.

- Another 4,226 similar actions in 170 countries will be held this weekend!
 Be part of MIT's contribution.
