Spencer Kornhaber / OC WeeklyThe International Day of Climate Action came and went, and global warming has been solved. What? Oh, sorry. It's still a problem. But at least some people tried to do something about it.This was true in Orange County. I stopped by the 350.org event in San Clemente on Saturday to see how they were possibly hoping to form a big human "350" on the pier. Turns out, they didn't.
