| On Oct 24th, people from Louisville and 4,000+ other places around the planet called for reducing greenhouse gas levels to 350 ppm. Here, on the Great Lawn, we heard inspiring speakers and music, learned about steps for reducing carbon footprints and spelled out a human '350' for an aerial photographer.
