The science is clear.  If we want to preserve life as we have known it on this earth, we must reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere to 350 parts per million.  To accomplish this reduction, we must voluntarily walk away from the economic, social, and political patterns that dominate our lives in the United States.  The only way to tackle such a monumental journey is one step at a time.

To symbolize this epic journey, and to urge our political leaders to “get to work” on addressing climate change, we will walk 350 miles through Utah.  Beginning on October 10, 2010, in the oil and gas fields of Vernal, Utah, we will walk away from this extractive landscape through some of Utah’s beautiful and unprotected wilderness quality landscapes.  

Every mile of this journey will be both personal and political.  At the end of each mile, we will take a picture that will become a postcard urging our political leaders to act immediately to address climate change.  350 Miles.  350 Postcards.
