Send the Prez-elect to Poland! « It’s Getting Hot In Here

Hey Barack and John, start booking your ticket to Poland.

This morning, we launched a new 350.org campaign to send the presidential candidates thousands of invitations to the UN Climate Meetings this December in Poland. Check out this awesome rotating globe that features videos from environmental leaders from around the world - and add your invite today!

We’ve almost passed our first goal: 3,500 invites before tonight’s debate . . . you could push us over the edge.

Why does the next Prez-elect need to go? Watch following animation that makes the case:

We’ll be keeping you updated on how the campaign is going over the next few weeks. And we’re counting on you to help us spread the word - especially to your international friends. And remember, while y’all are signing pledges, get on over to Power Vote too.

About Jamie

Jamie is the co-coordinator of 350.org, an international global warming campaign. A recent college graduate, he lives in San Francisco, CA.

He's also an early member of the youth climate movement, leading one of Energy Action's first campaigns in 2005: Road to Detroit, a nationwide veggie-oil bus tour to promote sustainable transportation. He's traveled to Montreal and Bali to lobby the UN with youth, but he's a strong believer that change happens in the streets not in meetings. Jamie received the Morris K. Udall award in 2007 and has been recognized by the mighty state of Vermont for his work on climate change. You can also find him blogging at Campus Progress' "Pushback," Changents.com, and 350.org.
