Fundraising for Cool Earth
Thanks for taking the time to visit Aaron and Sarah's JustGiving page. We are lucky enough to take on the adventure of a lifetime through India, courtesy of The Adventurists and a hip tin can. Help us keep preserve the wild and wonderful rainforests we will traverse by donating to Cool Earth.
Why Cool Earth you ask? The Adventurists put it best:
We’ve been banging on about saving the world for ages and we’ve raised stupendous amounts of money for a load of amazing charities. Teams on our adventures try to raise at least £500 for our official charity.
We sat down at HQ and pondered on what we could do that will actually save the world and continue the fight to make it less boring.
Then it hit us like a well-polished brogue to the nuts: ‘we must save every rainforest in the world so future generations have somewhere to get stuck’. Not because we’re tree hugging sandal weavers, but because the world would be shit without them. It’s not just about the carbon, the point is rainforests are indescribably excellent.
We need rainforests, not just to create oxygen but to get lost in. Without rainforests, we’d have no pith helmets. We’d live in a world with no tigers to run away from. There would be no cock gourds, no poisonous tree frogs, no Tarzan, no great apes, no David Livingstone, no Mary Kingsley, no Mungo Park.
Screw progress. We want the world to be covered in dark, unknown forests stretching away in an endless medley of sweat, botheration and deadly insects.
So Adventurists, we shall fix it. We shall save them all.
After what was actually a very long and detailed investigation we discovered an organization protecting more rainforest than the UN and all other nation states on earth put together - Cool Earth.
This means The Adventurists’ teams will not only be making the world less boring but actually saving mankind from its own stupidity. Well done you.
