Abstract

350.org is the largest organization on earth whose only task is fighting climate change. That sounds more impressive than it is: it means a staff of 160 people spread around the world, or on average about 25 per continent. Those numbers sound small, and they are - but the paid staff is amplified by large groups of volunteers, and of course by a philosophy of collaboration with many other groups. It’s not clear that it’s a big enough movement to win this fight - but at least it’s clear there will be a fight, which wasn’t obvious when 350.org had its birth ten years ago.
