RON WOOD NOT OUT OF HIS TREE!

To try and combat the greenhouse effect, Stones guitarslinger Ronnie Wood is creating his very own forest.

Wood, instead of falling out of a tree like fellow band member Keith Richards did earlier this year, has instead been busy planting trees in the ingeniously-named ‘Ronnie Wood Wood’, in civil war-torn Mozambique's Gorongosa National Park.

Everyone who helps plant trees in the forest - tree saplings cost £17.50 - will receive a certificate of ownership designed by the rocker, who is also an acclaimed artist.
