The Luna Tree Sit

On December 10th, 1997, 23 year old Julia Butterfly Hill climbed 180 feet up an ancient redwood she calls Luna and has not come down. In the American tradition of civil disobedience, she is conducting her courageous vigil on behalf of one of the last wild places left in our country, the remaining 3% of our magnificent old growth forests.

This website is an effort to broaden her audience, to bring her courageous stand literally into peoples homes around the world. Via her solar powered cellular phone, Julia phones in a weekly message hoping that you will participate in her struggle and lend her strength to stay in Luna until real and lasting protection is received for our remaining unprotected redwoods and last ancient forests.

Enjoy and learn about Julia's struggle by traveling the pages of this web site. Please keep this in mind: Her heroic efforts will mean little unless people like yourself follow through with action on behalf of our last ancient forests.  Join in solidarity with Luna, Julia and all those who are speaking out on behalf of our last old growth forests.
