International Day of Climate Action, 350 ride, 24 Oct 2009

For discussion here and at CAW meeting 7 July.

I think CAW needs to decide how much energy we want to put into organising a 350 day of action (http://www.350.org/plan) ride on 24 Oct. As it's not in our 2009 Plan am keen it doesn't displace other stuff.

My proposal: CAW contracts an event manager to organise it. Have invited Charlie Devenish from 350.org.nz to come to CAW meeting so we can cook something up.
