350!

Thank you to everyone who rode today! The front circle was filled with bikes! Get excited for the next bike to school which will happen as soon as the snow melts in the spring!

Also, 350 is tomorrow, October 24, 2009! Celebrate by turning off the lights in your house, committing to composting and recycling, eating organic food, or attending one of the 4000 events happening world world wide (there is one at crane's beach!).

Here are a few examples of events happening tomorrow:

In Cambodia, citizens from across the country will gather at the famous Angkor Wat to take a giant 350 action photo.

In Hungary, hundreds of bathers will jump into the public baths in Budapest and do a 350 synchronized swimming performance.

In Nepal, over a thousand young people and monks will march to the Swayambhunath world heritage site temple where they will form a large 350 with traditional lanterns.


In the United States, 350 people will dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller in Seattle -- because if we don't stop global warming, we might as well be undead.


In Panama, indigenous youth will lead a moonlight vigil in Kuna Yala, their vulnerable low-lying islands off the coast of Panama, forming a 350 at sunrise.

SO GET EXCITED, GET INSPIRED, AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
