Walking for Trees

I'm posting this with Fionavar's consent

 

Hello Obsidianites,

 

Tomorrow I embark upon a grand adventure, I shall be meeting up with my friend and ex-games industry colleague Andreas Gschwari, an Austrian fellow who has decided to dedicate a year of his life to walking round the coastline of Britian. That's about 4500-5000 miles on foot.

 

I will be joining him for 5-6 days, to walk the Yorkshire coastline with him, the whole point of this post is to try and raise a little awareness for Andreas and the cause he's walking for.

 

He's walking for a charity called Trees for life, the charity is dedicated to restoring the caledonian forest. Alot of the UK's forests were cut down over the last 1000 years or so, and as a result alot of wildlife has lost its habitat. This I believe is a step in the right direction.

 

Andreas has a facebook page, blog, and website where you can offer donations to the charity.

 

I'd like to thank you for your time reading this, along with thanks to Fionavar, and Obsidian Entertainment for allowing me to post this here.

 

Wish me luck on my journey.

 

Cheers

 

Chris "Nightshape" Hardwick

Ah! Now I understand. Good luck to your awkward last name friend, Nightshape.

 

I'm joining him for a week. You should donate kirottu!

I suspect a scam.

Great to see somebody actually doing something non-violent for what they believe in for a change. Nice iniative :shifty:

I wish trees could walk. Now that'd generate publicity.

Surely apathetic loafing is non-violent. Lots of people do that for what they 'believe in'.
