Monthly 350NYC Meeting
Details
Dear 350NYC Members and Friends,
Our guest this month will be Emily Fano, Climate Resilience Educator for the National Wildlife Federation in NYC, who will talk about the Climate Education Bill currently before the state legislature. Also are planning an open discussion in which anyone can volunteer to speak for 3-5 minutes on a climate issue that they are particularly interested in. The discussion could include options for effective actions: education, direct action, lobbying etc. So come share your ideas with the group! New attendees come at 6:30 and we'll orient you to our work, but if you can't do that, come when you can! We'll have pizza and drinks for all.
This meeting will be in person only.

NEW MEMBERS: If you're new to 350NYC please join us at 6:30pm for a brief orientation to the group, learn about our working groups and some of the campaigns we are currently involved with.
350NYC (http://350nyc.org) is the the local affiliate of http://350.org , a grassroots network of volunteer-run campaigns in over 188 countries working to prevent climate chaos. Here in New York, we are working locally for a cleaner, greener, better New York City for everyone.
Why the name 350NYC (http://350nyc.org)? 350 means climate safety. To preserve our planet, scientists tell us we must reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere from its current levels of over 400 parts per million to below 350 ppm. (More on the science of 350 (http://350.org/about/science/)). But 350 is more than a number—it’s a symbol of where we need to head as a planet.
“To Change Everything, We Need Everyone”
Come learn about us and get involved
Looking forward to seeing you.
The 350NYC Team
Every 4th Wednesday of the month
