Ru Hartwell

Tent maker, tree planter, inventor – I try to do stuff that hasn't been done before.

A long record of glorious project failures and the odd success as well. Red Kite Aerial Photography - I would go up in a hang glider and try to get photos of peoples houses with an old SLR. Usually it would end badly. Hampstead Christmas Tree Rental - renting out live trees in pots. The media loved it. The trees didn't. Treeflights - The idea that you could use trees to reabsorb airplane CO2 - that was one of mine....a lot of people didn't like it but 500,000 new trees in Africa cant be wrong
