10/10/10 Global Work Party

"....... this Sunday's "Global Work Party," where activists from around the globe will "pressure our leaders to Get To Work themselves by passing strong climate policies promoting clean energy and reducing emissions," as 350.org's website explains.

With two days remaining until 10/10/10, the group has registered nearly 7,000 events in 188 countries. Coordinated online outreach by 350.org and its partner organizations has made the immense scale of the Global Work Party possible."

The title-linked article provides a concise, but detailed summary of grass roots efforts to tackle global warming spearheaded by 350.org and Greenpeace. If you go to the 350.org web site you can search where some of the 7,000 events are taking place. The closest to southern Delaware is in Salisbury, MD.
