Pedal Power!

Now that Summer is almost here in the Northern Hemisphere, lots of people are hopping on their bicycles. Fortunately for the 350 cause, many of these folks are choosing to promote climate solutions through bike rides.

We're written a lot about Ride 350 in the past, but here are a few more efforts. In Vermont, Jesse Peters is embarking on a cross-country bike ride and musical tour, soliciting donations for 350.org in the process.

There's also an international tour, starting in the Northwestern U.S. and ending at the UN Climate Talks in Cancun, Mexico. Check that effort out here.
