Anything that draws attention to our impending doom is worthwhile, but I'm not sure I understand how they are planning to make the jump from virtual to changing things in the real world. posted by muckster at 11:18 AM on April 22, 2005
A virtual march? That'll show'em. posted by fungible at 11:49 AM on April 22, 2005

Thanks for the tip. I see Sen. John McCain is a participant. I work on a federal project which, among many oceanographic uses, maps the navigational effects of global warming on homeland security. McCain has tried to shut down the project. posted by 3.2.3 at 12:10 PM on April 22, 2005
If this doesn't work, we'll have to resort to virtual terrorism. And once flaming GIFs start appearing on the map, you'll have no one to blame but yourselves. posted by 2sheets at 5:28 PM on April 22, 2005

Yes, sign me up for a virtual march to stop the natural cycle of climate change on the Earth. Lets all virtually leave the planet too, that will have as much impact as if we really left. posted by acetonic at 6:12 AM on April 23, 2005
