Why we are 350: Scientists overwhelmingly agree that 350ppm CO2 is the upper limit to sustain life as humans have lived it. For more than 800,000 years atmospheric CO2 varied between roughly 180 to 280ppm ([link removed]) .

Earth passed 350ppm CO2 during 1988!
Mauna Loa Observatory ([link removed]) - We are now in the 420ppm range!

GET INVOLVED
Join us for a virtual movie screening

Solar United Neighbors is partnering with the American Resiliency Project to host a movie screening of The Transformation Cannot Be Stopped on Wednesday, December 13, at 7 p.m. EST. Sign up for the movie screening ([link removed]) .

The film talks about how different industries — like utilities, automobiles, technology, and defense — can improve the aging power grid. It explains how we can make smart choices to better the power grid by using distributed renewable energy generation and the development of an electric vehicle infrastructure.

After the film there will be a live Q&A session with the filmmaker, Roger Sorkin. During the Q&A you will have an opportunity to get your questions answered live and get a behind the scenes look at Roger's filming vision.

Signing up is free, but donations are encouraged.

350MKE Fridays for Future
Fridays from 12:00 - 1:00 pm
​Chase & Wells Fargo Banks
Many banks (including Chase and Wells Fargo) are lending their depositor's money to fossil fuel companies to develop new fossil fuel production.

We want more people to be aware of this and hopefully change their bank or talk to the bank management!

We get honks and thumbs up from drivers and passersby. Some people stop and have a chat about what the banks are doing, or ask, "What is fossil fuel ([link removed]) ?"

We're alternating between two Chase Bank locations.
Chase Bank Calendar
* Friday Dec. 15 - Wisconsin Ave. & Water St. ([link removed])
* Friday Dec. 22, Silver Spring Dr. & Lydell Ave. ([link removed])
