Solution : iMatter Movement
My name is Matt and ive been a Activist for 2 1/2 Years now. I am with iMatter,Greenpeace,350,Sierra Club,Sea Shepherd Conservation Society,MyCom,Drink Local Drink Tap, and the YMCA. I started and did all of my work when i was in Kansas. Once i moved up to Cleveland Ohio, I started my wirk as a Activist. Being a activist is fun but has its bad times. Currently now, We have no money for anything we need now, so were calling upon YOU! If you could help us by donating or even just being a Sponcer for us that would be Great! WE are a generation inspired by the need itself to step up and be the change we want to see. iMatter began as a simple video, created by a 13 year old, that covered the problems, consequences and solutions of climate change in like a minute. And now it's a global campaign meant to unite the voices of a generation on the most urgent issue of our time. The non profit project of Earth Island Institute, called Kids vs Global Warming, has pulled together a bunch of amazing partners to give youth a platform to raise their voices so loud they cannot be ignored. Scientists that dedicate their entire lives to studying this, have made it clear: to avert the worst effects of climate change, the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere need to be at 350 parts per million (ppm). Right now we are at 391ppm. If we keep burning at the rate we are now, we will be at 500ppm by 2050. This would make earth a completely different planet, uninhabitable for most species. We can't let that happen!
