Columbia, Missouri residents concerned about global warming plan a rally at 2 p.m. Saturday outside the Boone County Courthouse to urge Congress to reduce U.S. carbon emissions by 80 percent by the year 2050.
Participants will be able to pledge to reduce their own carbon emissions and sign a petition encouraging government action. Organizers have scheduled live music at the gathering and a speech by Jan Weaver, director of environmental studies at the University of Missouri-Columbia.
Organizers also plan a march on Eighth Street, from Courthouse Square to the Columns at MU, where informational booths will be set up.
The gathering is part of a national campaign called Step It Up and is locally sponsored by the League of Women Voters, Sustain MIZZOU, Missourians for Safe Energy and the Climate Change Coalition.

Saturday: A chance of rain and snow before noon, then a chance of rain. Cloudy, with a high near 45.
Unusual April snow here in Iowa. Trees and flowers frozen and will have to regrow for the year.
The Ultimate Don’t Get It! These fools, who flew and drove to the rally in their BMWs, stand out in the freezing cold to claim global warming.
Someday the Universe will faught
And blow our Sun, and us, apart.
We’ll disappear without a trace.
Drifting about in frozen space.
