This Saturday the world will come together for Moving Planet -- a global day to move beyond fossil fuels. At more than 2,000 events in 169 countries worldwide, people will gather by bike, on skates, with boards or on foot to demand solutions to the climate crisis and to demand government action, especially in places where governments are stalling on climate action despite the overwhelming urgency of the science.

To bring the spirit of the global day of action online, OneWorldUK worked together with the global climate alliance TckTckTck, to develop 'Moving Planet,' an interactive photo gallery and collaborative media project bringing together thousands of photos into one powerful visual of a planet in motion.

Moving Planet is powered by OneWorld UK's "deep zoom" technology, which allows web users to zoom in on the individual photos and videos that make up the full Earth image, and then upload their own photos from the Global Day of Action this Saturday.

Check out 'Moving Planet' below and see for yourself the scope and breadth of the growing movement against fossil fuels. For more information about the Global Day of Action this Saturday, visit http://moving-planet.org.
