Don't forget to add your name if you've planted trees!!!!!
i planted a tree (or trees or other vegetation) to offset my carbon footprint while travelling to see pearl jam play the south, and am sending proof to the ten club in the form of a certificate of gift planting or photo of my planting
Some love.........some Pearl Jam..........some cooler weather....
Seeds=trees=a helping hand for Mother Nature
Pearl Jam=a great band=something that the South needs to see
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.

All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
Second bump of the morning.....time to go to class.
Up here in our trees.........
Pearl Jam does matter to the South

Just got back from a nice long walk with the dog and the weather is perfect...cool, and breezy with just the right amount of sunshine.......PLEASE PLAY THE SOUTH!
Movin this info to the last page for all to see.....
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), or just visit your local home improvement
megastore.
2) Purchase your trees. (stealing your neighbor's trees and re-planting them is NOT recommended .)
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!:)
Today's a lovely Fall day.........see it's not always a tropical hell-hole down here.
The trees seem to love the weather.
I think that Pearl Jam would love it here......if they would give us a try.
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
Over the course of 50 years, a single tree can generate $31,250 of oxygen, provide $62,000 worth of air pollution control, recycle $37,500 worth of water, and control $31,500 worth of soil erosion.
__ __ ____ ___ ___ _____ ___ _____ ___ ___ ___ __ __ ___
So, based on the list we have so far (if youve planted a tree or ten, please add your name to the list that's circulating):
We will have generated $ 4,687,500.00 worth of oxygen, provided $9,300,000.00 worth of air polution control, recycled $5,625,000.00 worth of water and controlled $4,725,000.00 worth of soil erosion!!!
How about those numbers boys and girls...all from 15 people planting 10 trees each for a grand total of only $150 !!
So, let me reitterate my point again in another way...for only $10...1/2 the cost of your 10c membership, 1/3 the cost of a tour poster (about 1/10 if you go and flip it on eBay) or the roughly the cost of 9 Wendy's Bacon Jr. Cheesburgers (plus tax)... you can help out a great cause and get PJ's attention in an environmentally friendly way....
Help us offset the "Carbon Footprint" (see Activism header on 10c website) of PJ's tour, and hopefully grab enough of their attention that they will add the South to their 2007 tour itenerary, by coughing up measly 10 bucks on your next payday (you're only gonna blow it on booze and smokes anyway)..... visit one of the suggested websites today and......
PLANT A FEW TREES so PJ will PLAY THE SOUTH!

do we need to start with the heartfelt sob-stories now?
i got one
If none of the above, as well as none from the list of verbs others have mentioned, has instigated NOT EVEN an eensy, beensy mention of the South so far, what the hell???? HAVE YOU NO MERCY IN YOUR HEARTS TEN CLUB?? To be excluded from the first and second legs was bad enough, but to receive nothing but a cold, hard, silent response to all of our efforts is downright humiliating.
TALK TO US SOMEBODY FROM TEN CLUB.......PLEASE
We don't deserve this kind of treatment. As you can see from our posts, we are loyal, dedicated fans who have travelled MANY MILES over the years, and spent lots o' money, to see and support the greatest American band ever. I never dreamed you could be so cold.......... and I bet you haven't even let the guys know how much we're hurting down here.
This is non-sensical. I'm going back to work.....

Weenie, I feel your pain....but I do think they are listening....I think they can hear us in the distance, but we arent quite loud enough yet...They did merge the 2 threads...so they do know we are out here.
I think we just need to TO GET MORE PEOPLE ON BOARD THE TREE PLANTING TRAIN!
COME ON BOYS AND GIRLS...15 PEOPLE PLANTING TREES AINT GONNA DO IT!
PUT DOWN THE TV REMOTE, STOP SURFING THE PORN, PICK UP YOUR CREDIT CARD (OR BORROW YOUR SPOUSE'S) AND ORDER SOME TREES!
WE CAN AND WILL MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
Check the list...only 15 folks have contributed..that's not nearly enough.
