Yesterday was an amazing experience for my wife and me. Being apart of a global movement through participation within our local community made me further understand how our daily actions can impact all of us around the world. According to 350.0rg's official website, "many people in 181 countries at over 5400 events participated yesterday". The mission for 350 day is "to inspire the world to rise to the challenge of the climate crisis—to create a new sense of urgency and of possibility for our planet."
Kristen and I attended the Community Tree Planting at Coeur d'Alene Elementary. Volunteers, parents and children helped plant trees & shrubs throughout the play ground of the school campus. The Tree Planting was the culmination of 9 months of hard work by many of the parents and supporters of Coeur d'Alene Elementary. It was great to see the excitement in the kids eyes as they dug, planted, watered and laughed with each other. I look forward to more days like this not only with my wife but with our community as we all work together to help product our environment and stop climate change.
For more information, photos and reports on 350 day events visit 350.org. Also if you are interested in learning more or donating to a great school located in Venice, CA visit Coeur d'Alene Elementary.
I hope all of you had a great time yesterday and if you did not get a chance to attend or participate in an event remember we all have the ability to do something daily in our lives to help stop climate change so have at! Be good.
