Violent climate video is the opposite of what 10/10/10 is about
A new video from misguided activists shows schoolchildren blown up for not believing in climate change. We at 350.org think it's disgusting.

Environmentalists need a new president
I initially thought Bill McKibben's drive to return solar panels to the White House was essentially a waste of time: of all the things to ask the president, it seemed like the smallest, most insignificant, and easiest. I realize now that its very simplicity made the solar panels a masterstroke that clearly exposed, more than any big policy ask ever would, Obama's unwillingness or inability to confront our great planetary crisis.

White House won't put solar on it … but we will
The Obama administration didn't commit to putting panels back on the White House. That's too bad. But it's also a great reminder of who the real leaders are. If the president can't climb up on the roof and hammer in some solar panels, clearly we need to push him up. Join us on 10/10/10!

Bill McKibben tells Letterman why he's bringing solar back to the White House
Bill McKibben chats with David Lettermen about 350.org, his book Eaarth, and a new tour to bring rooftop solar back to the White House (Jimmy Carter installed panels; Ronald Reagan took them down; and students from Unity College in Maine, where they've been stored, are traveling to Washington to have them put back up). Hard worker, this guy.

Scientists keep raising estimates of how much oil is still in the Gulf
The big question about the BP oil disaster is no longer “Where’s the oil?âÃÂÂ
