I spent the last two days in the capital city, one of the largest and most beautiful urban areas on earth–a place that used to be synonymous with pollution but that in recent years has begun to make real strides. Now, thanks to the 350.org Mexico team, they’re ready to help lead on a global stage too. We had talks at universities, and with the city’s vibrant environmental commissioner Martha Delgado; we met with great local NGOs (thanks Presencia Ciudadana! thanks TCP Mexico!) and with the Nobel-winning atmospheric chemist Mario Molina. And people kept arriving from every corner of the country to report what they were planning for Oct. 24–a huge rally in Monterrey, 213 (!) separate actions in the state of Veracruz.
