Bike Bellingham is the 2011 local 350.org event

350.org has launched a 2011 project set for 9/24/2011, called "Moving Planet" with a website at www.moving-planet.org. In Bellingham, a project has risen up called "Bike Bellingham" which will feature family friendly bike rides from ten city schools that will converge at the Bellingham City Hall flag plaza for a climate rally/info fair from noon to 2 pm. There will also be an advanced ride from the plaza to the proposed Cherry Point Coal terminal leaving at 2 pm. If you would like more information, go to facebook.com/350bellingham. I will be posting additional information here as I learn more. However, there is a need for volunteers to help the day of the event, with pre-event postering canvassing for sponsors.

Comment by J. C. Walker,Jr. on March 26, 2013 at 9:20am: On a level of logical order the future condition of the globally shared environment supersedes the potential expansion of various intertwined fiat economies. From the Anthropocene, to even consider much less manifest rewards from a contribution to planetary ecocide is nothing short of madness. “Good Jobs” don’t make the planet hotter. By all means take some time to grieve the passing of the Holocene, but in the meantime reject the Keystone XL pipeline.

Here’s how Time put it yesterday: "There are many climate problems a President can’t solve, but Keystone XL isn’t one of them. It’s a choice between Big Oil and a more sustainable planet." As with those historic moments at Stonewall or Selma, "The right answer isn’t always somewhere in the middle."

Thanks for all you’ve done, and thanks for all you’ll do.

P.S. - We're also going to be hosting strategy sessions across the country on March 10th to cover these things and more. A few have already been set up -- see here: act.350.org/event/2013-strategy-sessions/ -- but if you'd like to host a gathering to plan on all these things together, click to sign up here: act.350.org/event/2013-strategy-sessions/create/

2) Would anyone like to help paint a rooftop or two?
