The 350 Pledge

What is 350? 350 ppm (parts per million) is the number that leading scientists say is the safe upper limit for carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. We are already at close to 400 ppm so we need to reduce fast.

So I have signed a pledge to do my part to help get us down to 350 ppm CO2 in the atmosphere. If you want to do so, go here:

I pledge to park my car 9 months of the year and commute the 25kms from Armstrong to my office in Vernon by bicycle, 50kms roundtrip, which I have been doing for 3 years now. Dec-Feb the roads get silly around here, but I carpool as much as possible.

Go Green!
