Why: In December, the nations of the world will be meeting in Copenhagen to craft a global treaty designed to help the world act together to solve global warming. The terms of this treaty may well determine whether we actually save the planet from climate change, so it’s up to all of us to make sure we get it right. Join hundreds of Minnesotans calling for strong US leadership on climate change solutions! Take part in the 350 International Day of Action, and join diverse voices around the globe demanding international cooperation on greenhouse gas reductions.
