I like that idea, too- just make sure to reference the Tree thing on the envelope so we don't get lumped in with Sally Two-Shoes who just wants Eddie's autograph.
I'm mailing the receipt. I put "Trees for Pearl Jam" on the outside of the envelope. They may open it expecting seedlings to fall out - ha!

This little movement seems to have grown some legs of its own....
The *** Official Plant a Tree, Play the South*** petition has been merged with this thread.
Im going to keep posting this until we get lots more people on board.
We are hoping to get the attention of the band and do something great for the enviroment at the same time. What we would like to do is plant as many trees as possible in order to offset the "Carbon Footprint" (see Activism) of PJ'S tour when they come southward (and I know they will!)
Below are some suggested links to foundations that will plant trees for small donations. They will even send you a certificate indicating that the trees have been planted and where they were planted. For as little as 10 bucks, only half the cost of your 10c membership, you can get 10 trees planted in honor of PJ's Southern Tour leg in 2007.
My 10 trees are planted and they should be photosynthesising as we speak. Once my certificate arrives, it will be forwarded to the 10c.
Folks, its entirely possible, with a little help we could get litterally thousands of trees planted with this little "Southern Homegrown Movement".
The steps are simple:
1) Pick a foundation from the links below, or any other that you like.
2) Purchase your trees
3) Have your certificate, if applicable, filled out to indicate that these trees were planted in honor of Pearl Jam's Southern US Tour in 2007.
Or, if you plant a tree at your house, just snap a picture.
4) Send your certificate, printed email receipt or photo to the 10c at the below address.
** SNAIL MAIL IS THE OPTIMAL ATTENTION GETTING METHOD.**
on the outside of your envelope please write:
"Trees for Pearl Jam Movement"
It's that easy!
Let's really get the band's attention in a positive way instead of just bitchin and moaning!

Yall help me out here, just a thought..but I'm for swamping them with "snail mail"...too easy to send email to the junk folder...I dont know...what's everybody elses take on this?
don't want to piss them off. just sending shit just to send shit would surely piss them off. stuffing their mailbox for a valid reason, like with gift tree certificates is one thing, but doing it just to make a pile for them is more likely to piss them off, imho....

Just "planted my trees" and had the certificate sent to 10 Club. I hope everybody indicates what the trees are in honor of..... PJ Southern Tour in '07, whether it's e-mail or certificate - we southerners need to let them know we're expecting a tour.
(Hey Barkingdogs, I'll be putting that list together tomorrow!)
Play the South!!
Please??
