Ghost Forest (see our photos)is an original and ambitious project by Angela Palmer (http://www.ghostforest.org) that seeks to raise public awareness of the connections between deforestation and climate change. It involves taking a series of 10 rainforest tree stumps, most with their buttress roots still attached, from a regulated, commercially logged tropical rainforest in Ghana. The tree stumps will be presented as a “ghost forest” firstly in Trafalgar Square in London, and then in Copenhagen to coincide with the UN Cop15 Climate Change Conference in December

Ghost Forest is a carbon neutral project - following input from Climate Care, Ghost Forest's carbon footprint will be offset, see here for details.
