From November 20th-28th, people around the world will be coming together to form the biggest art exhibition, visible from space. The project, 35o Earth is an initiative of the folks at 350.org, a campaign to get people taking action to reduce global carbon emissions from 388 t0 350 parts per million of carbon. Scientists say that 350 parts per million CO2 in the atmosphere is the safe limit for humanity.
You can get involved by running an event, or being a part of a large piece of art. It’s quite impressive and no doubt will produce stunning images.
