Very Succesful 350 Day

http://www.350.org/

Congratulations to all the organisers and participants of the event in Borth, and the global organisers too. The events round the world gained much publicity and media coverage. The local event here was shown on the BBC Wales news last night, and also on the Welsh Channel 4 (S4C) news. It will be in the local paper on Wednesday. It was nice that our local LibDem MP Mark Williams attended. My friend Siwan was interviewed, and S4C showed it.

A few pictures from yesterday are below. Mark Williams is the man in the dark suit (but no tie) perched on the arm of the armchair. Click on any of the images to enlarge them.

Cheers, Tom.

  Good question! Siwan stuck a painting on the front of it so it appeared to have something on the screen :-)

  It was the first seriously wintry day of the year - a howling gale all day and rain showers too. But it worked well - people are hardy round here!

  Yes, they are campaigning to get atmospheric CO2 down from 390 to 350ppm. At the moment, they are trying to increase awareness prior to the UN Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen in December.

Thanks for alerting me to this. It was on our news and celebrated in the major cities. Living remotely as we do, we often hear of things after the fact. Thanks for posting the pics!

  It was a lot of fun and sends a powerful message too.

The poseys on the TV were a very nice touch, just finished the whole scene. The secret is in the props.
