350 Moving Planet Kuwait Environmental Awareness March

 







We, at 350, will get together at the Kuwait Towers by 3pm SHARP. We will distribute t-shirts and hats before departing then we will start to march up until the Kuwait municipal builiding (Saahat Al- Iraada). The march will be on foot, scooters, skateboards, roller blades, bicycles or any manner of carbon-emission free transport you choose. We will be participating with the scouts society, and we also hope for thousands of people to come, young and old, marching to make a change! It would be more than great if you could bring along some cardboards that say "350 Moving Planet" or any environmental quote that you'd like! You could also get easily held musical instruments if you like... get creative!

Invite your friends, your family, your neighbors your co-workers, etc! The event will seek to raise awareness of climate-friendly alternatives to damaging practices like driving your car, cutting down trees, and many other harmful actions. It will also seek to influence policy change in the government for non motorized transport. Upon our arrival we will have a gathering, we will be playing electricity free music, we will have a small kite flying contest (the kites are preferably with the colors of the Kuwaiti flag or one of the colors).

Kuwait Change campaign, with the help of the worldwide 350 Organization is organizing this event! View the Facebook event page HERE!

When: Monday, October 24th
Time: 3:00pm - 6:00pm

  1. Wish I could make it but too short notice :( How do they expect thousands to show up right in the middle of a working day?
