In fact, the sun is going to deliver the message -- we\u2019re just going to help. We're planning on setting up gigantic blocks of ice that say \"Hoax?\" right in the heart of DC. We'll see just how long it takes to melt away. Not long, probably -- the forecast is for over 100 degrees tomorrow.We're hoping to raise $5,000 to build a massive \"Climate Hoax\" ice sculpture in DC -- and we'll send half of the money we raise to the Red Cross to provide direct relief to people impacted by the recent climate disasters.&nbsp;&gt;&gt;Two years ago, in the middle of Washington DC\u2019s record snowstorms (made possible by our wet new atmosphere) Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma had his grandchildren build an igloo to make fun of global warming -- Inhofe is the guy who called global warming the&nbsp;\u201cgreatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people.\"&nbsp;(Since then his home state has set the record for the warmest summer ever recorded in the United States.)Inhofe's igloo stunt was silly and misleading -- but it captured the attention of the media and spawned legions of gloating climate deniers. Well, there's no reason climate deniers should have all the fun in DC.&nbsp;Like everything we do at 350.org, the ice sculpture will be people-powered -- your donations will help pay for it, and we've recruited 350 activists in DC to help with logistics on the ground.&nbsp;Even if we thaw some denial, though, it won\u2019t matter if we don\u2019t also melt away the laws that keep fossil fuel king. That\u2019s why we\u2019re campaigning hard this summer to end subsidies to the planet\u2019s richest industry.&nbsp;In the coming weeks, we'll fan out across the country to town-halls and campaign events to ramp up the pressure on politicians who still haven\u2019t committed to ending fossil fuel subsidies.There's lots of work to be done -- but for now let's start a climate denial meltdown.
