Eight Seattle-area students, aged 10 to 18, are finishing up their three-week bicycle trip to raise awareness of climate change today, Earth Day.

The trip began March 31 in Washington, D.C. and will end in Seattle today, after logging over 5,400 miles, for the Global to Local celebration. 

The students rode bicycles across the country for the project, called An Inconvenient Ride, stopping in cities that had signed on to Seattle Mayor Greg Nichols' Climate Protection Initiative.  

Check out their Web site, produced by the students, at An Inconvenient Ride.  There you can see cyclist bios, photos from the trip and read daily blogs.

I just read all of the bios of the students who did "An Inconvenient Ride," and they are very intelligent and has so much to be proud of. There are many people who constantly doubt the youth. It is a great thing to see people proving the nay-sayers wrong.
