Story

Inspired by Ross Edgely and his Everest rope climb, I've done my own twist. I've measured a point 3.57m up a tree that I will reach repeatedly until I've done the height of Everest. 

Rainforests store billions of tonnes of carbon, helping to mitigate climate change. They are also home to 50% of the world’s species (many of which are endangered) and thousands of indigenous communities rely on these forests for their survival. Yet every day we lose 70,000 acres of rainforest to deforestation. Rainforest Trust has already placed over 34 million acres under permanent protection, and all donations are doubled by a generous supporter. Please be a Rainforest Hero for the planet and make a donation to my fundraising page today!
