Earlier this week, Megadeth drummer Dirk Verbeuren introduced that he was teaming up together with his former Artsonic bandmate Sylvain Demercastel to launch a non-profit group aimed toward preserving as a lot rainforest in Costa Rica as potential, referred to as Savage Lands.
In response to the group’s web site, it’s a non-profit that generates funds as a way to finance reforestation efforts in Costa Rica and buy land to “lengthen inexperienced areas and create sanctuary zones.” Sadly, deforestation has been working rampant all through Central and South America for years now, leaving giant swathes of land barren and destroying the pure habitats of numerous species of animals.
Since they search to generate donations to assist their trigger, Savage Lands is working a brand new initiative referred to as Lottery of the Bushes, which options some fairly superior prizes for the winner. By buying a lottery ticket on-line, you enter right into a sweepstakes to win:
- A customized Dunable guitar made by Intronaut’s Sacha Dunable
- A second customized Dunable guitar that’s been performed onstage by members of Gojira, Megadeth, Loudblast and Sepultura
- A cross to attend Hellfest 2023
The lottery will run till February 15, 2023. All cash generated by the Lottery of the Bushes will go on to land purchases and reforestation initiatives in among the extra at-risk areas of Costa Rica.
Verbeuren isn’t the one man in metallic seeking to save Central and South American rainforests. Earlier this yr, Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe defined how he’s been working to buy land in Ecuador to guard as a lot rainforest as potential from deforestation.
