With the approach of the 2015 United Nations Climate Conference in
Paris scheduled to start in a couple of weeks (Nov. 30th), an
opportunity for the global community to collectively communicate a
message of hope, peace, and support for rapid and equitable progress
towards a fossil-free future has presented itself.
Global Climate March: the weekend of November 28th (the two days prior to the conference), "people everywhere are
coming together for two weeks of action calling for climate justice and an
end to carbon pollution. There are going to be thousands of events (2152+) around the
world culminating in a mass mobilisation in Paris on Dec 12th" (the day after the conference ends).
There are a variety of events including: rallies, marches, and candlelight vigils.

http://350.org/global-climate-march/
has additional information about the purpose and the specific goals of
this action (scroll towards the bottom: under "what we hope to achieve
in Paris").
Anyone else planning on attending their local event?
Anyone have any ideas how we might identify ourselves as nerdfighters in the pictures? Or other ways to show group coordination (because isn't that half of the power of a rally or march... the ability to coordinate a large number of people into peaceful action?)?
