1,000 Naked Activists Out Saving Trees

by Jack Gescheidt (jack [at] treespiritproject.com)
Over 1,000 tree huggers are naked across America to save trees and raise awareness for protecting forests everywhere. “We Are Trees,” The TreeSpirit Project coffee table book features over 120 fine art photographs made over 12 years with environmental activists and nature lovers.

It’s the world’s largest collection of naked tree activists photos, by environmental artist Jack Gescheidt, dramatizing human interdependence with trees — forests mitigate human-caused climate change, and deforestation contributes to it.

This one-of-a-kind environmental activist photo book is crowdfunding on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/treespiritproject/treespirit-project-coffee-table-book?ref=e74eiv

HOW Kickstarter WORKS: People make a monetary Pledge for a copy of this exclusive 1st edition book at an exclusive, advance, discounted price. When Pledges reach the funding goal, the book goes into production. Delivery is in November, in time for the 2017 holidays.

BACKGROUND: Gescheidt’s wild, tender TreeSpirit Project collection of photographs have been making headlines since 2004. The Project celebrates not only the beauty of trees, but their ecological necessity to slow global warming — caused in part by deforestation.

WHAT & WHERE: Crowd-funding campaign for 1st edition TreeSpirit coffee table book of over 175 photographs on 11x14” pages.

WHEN: NOW, and ending soon. The book is produced when the funding goal is reached,

WHY: TreeSpirit’s mission: raise awareness of the crucial role of trees on Earth, and in our lives.
