Saving Mr. Charlie’s Trees: Preview ON LINE
Watch:
Mr. Charlie came from poverty to plant a million trees and create a wildlife sanctuary he left to the University of Georgia for safekeeping.
He was my uncle and a second father to me.
This is about big money and the future of our world.
In 2020, UGA reinterpreted the terms of the agreements and began selling off the land, most of it to a lumber company.
What will happen to his trees?
And to the South?
And to the earth?
Can we still be heroes?
Trees, people, wildlife, climate…
Big Money, Big Timber.
Come with me.
Saving Mr. Charlie’s Trees
…Part of a much bigger picture: massive deforestation and industrial logging in low income communities in the South and repercussions across the globe.
