Greenpeace plans global warming rally in harbor
The environmental group Greenpeace plans to partner with 350.org (which was founded by author Bill McKibben, who wrote one of the first books on global warming, among others) to host a rally in the Inner Harbor on Oct. 24 to call for action on global warming.
Called the International Day of Climate Action, you can get more info on the local event here. The group plans to march from Port Discovery to Rash Field -- about a mile -- to draw attention to the growing problem.
If you'd like to attend, you can register here. 350.org is also looking for other people to organize such events. You also can watch a clip of McKibben on the Colbert Report below.
