Plans for 2011

350 Aotearoa's plans for 2011 are coming along nicely...things to get involved with this year include:

  • A Global Day of Action - "Moving Planet" to get people literally moving closer to 350 parts per million. Updates coming soon!
  • A NZ visit by James Hansen, a NASA scientist and the guy who came up with the number 350.
  • Solar Saver - campaigning local councils to make solar hot water systems available in your home. 

We are also re-vamping our website over the coming weeks, so come and check it out soon!


Send your old cellphones our way!

Send your old cellphones our way!

Convert your old cellphone in to cash for 350.

Got a new cellphone recently and have your old brick stored away in your cupboard?

We know there are around 5 million cellphones floating around NZ, 1.8 million of which are no longer used. Not so sustainable.

If you have an old cellphone we can recycle it and convert it into funds to support 350 Aotearoa's plans for 2011 -  so we can do bigger and better things!

You could even send an email out to friends, family and workmates to get a collection of phones.

Read more here and send your old cellphone our way.


Pacific Roundtable interpretive dance

Aaron has just got back from a week in Niue at the Pacific Climate Change Roundtable. Read his posts about his visit to Niue, including how 350 do things a bit differently... including the use of interpretive dance!

Christchurch - a 350 city of the future?

The devastating Christchurch earthquakes bring a unique opportunity - the chance to rebuild the city in an eco-friendly manner. Grassroots action can make all the difference! Join in our facebook discussion to talk about ideas and connect people who want to take action.
