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.
