Pearl Jam Saves the Earth


Happy Earth Day!  What could be a better topic for today than a feature about Pearl Jam saving trees?!

Tom and I recently watched the Pearl Jam 20 documentary, a good show. 

Glad to find out that Pearl Jam offset its carbon footprint for its 20th Anniversary Destination Weekend, video below.  Their support is making a direct impact at The Conservation Fund's 24,000 acre Garcia River Forest in northern California.
