Plans are in motion for International Day of Climate Action (http://www.350.org) in Beijing...and we need your PEDAL POWER!
Following in the footsteps of last June's Beijing Green Train critical bike mass (organized by the CCC team - http://www.chinacharitychallenge.org) we've started to map out a *350* Beijing Green Train to run on October 24th.
The goals of this Green Train are:
1. To encourage the use of low or zero carbon forms of transportation (in this case, cycling) instead of private vehicles.
2. Gather 350 riders in support of our #1 goal for a city-wide route finishing at the Roots & Shoots "Climate Action Carnival" at Beijing City International School.
350 Beijing Green Train Schedule (tentative):
12:30 – Park between Bell & Drum Towers – Gulou & Zhonglou
12:55 – Nanxincang Int'l Tower/west of Dongsishitiao Subway
13:05 – Workers’ Gymnasium (Gongtiren Bei Lu)
13:15 – Tuanjiehu Subway Station (South-East)
13:35 – Trek Bicycle Shop (south of Qingnian Heping Square)
14:00 – Beijing City International School (Baiziwan Lu)
ALL ABOARD!
