Step It, born at Middlebury College, sparks 1,400 events across the country: “On this historic day, Americans called on their leaders to act immediately to stop global warming. In all 50 states, at more than 1400 iconic places across the nation, we have united around a common call to action: ‘Step It Up Congress: Cut Carbon 80% by 2050.’ Your move, Congress. “
