SHOCKER: White House tells McKibben “Make Us Do It” When it Comes to Real and Significant Climate Change Policy
350.org posts a casual video chat between Greenpeace UK and author and activist Bill McKibben with one comment coming across as nothing short of jaw-dropping. Noting that the current constellation of political forces does not allow for getting done what needs to get done, McKibben says:
I was at the White House a month ago. The clear message was ‘Make us do it. Build the movement that gives us the room to do the things we want to do.’
Ball’s in your court, folks. Uncle Sam want you! (To create the political will for the Obama administration to do something about substantive about climate change). Well, you’re all gonna have the opportunity this fall on October 24, 2009 at the Global Day of Climate Action which the 350 campaign hopes will be the “largest climate action the world has ever seen” as this nifty animation makes clear.
350.org has been spreading its important message about reducing the world’s level of C02 in the atmosphere to 350 parts per million since embarking on the journey it launched in 2008. You can always check in to see how we’re doing with our planetary atmospheric carbon dioxide levels by visiting greenhouse gas watchdog CO2 Now to check out their handy widget based on up-to-the-moment data from the Mauna Loa Observatory.
