350 At Bates College

On Monday, October 19 at 12:15 PM Bates students broke into simultaneous dance in the dining commons. Why, you ask? In celebration of a number... 350!

350 is the parts per million of atmospheric carbon-dioxide we need for a healthy planet. On October 24, 2009 we will stand together as one planet and call for a fair global climate treaty. United by a common call to action, we'll make it clear: the world needs an international plan that meets the latest science and gets us back to safety. Together, we will solve the climate crisis.

Visit www.350.org for more information.

Bobcats, holla!

I would be pissed if this happened while I was trying to have lunch. What the hell did all those people do to deserve having their day ruined like that?

Who says that 350 ppm is the magic number? What scientific evidence is there to base this on?

If they told you it was 500ppm you wouldnt question that either would you?
