Louisville             Coalition
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.
More photos here and here.
Moving Planet was an int'l day when we
put our demands for climate action into
motion—walking, biking and riding TARC—
to call for the world to go beyond fossil
fuels.  Here in Louisville, we enjoyed the
words of US Rep. John Yarmuth, great
music, a flash mob and more.  See more.
