Project 350 is a grassroots movement looking to inspire the world to take action toward solving the global climate crisis.

Toward that end, Project 350 has organized an international day of climate action to be held on October 24th, 2009.  This is a day to showcase the number 350 at an “iconic” place in your community, document it, and share it with 350.org so that they might relay your message of support to global leaders.

Understanding that people are walking billboards, 350.org set up a CafePress shop so that climate activists can sport their support and, one hopes, inspire others to do the same.  We spoke with the folks at Project 350 about the shop, and here’s what they said:

“Its funny, it is actually a good story how we´ve been using Cafe Press…. we´ve managed to get materials (tshirts, stickers) to local grassroots climate change advocates in places as far flung as Paraguay, Nuie, and Moldova through the service…. mostly with the credit we´ve racked up selling gear to people who are buying it!  So your products will show up all around the world on October 24th, the international day of action we´re organizing.”

To help support the 350 cause, CafePress has issued a coupon for 20% off 350 T-shirts and merchandise.  The code runs through Wednesday, October 14.  Code (to be used at checkout): PROJ350

If you’re still wondering what they’re all about, here’s a video that explains the finer details:
