Julia Butterfly Hill had a pretty average life (except for being the daughter of a traveling preacher) as a resuarant manager in Jonesboro, Arkansas. But in August 1996 at the age of 22 she suffererd a near fatal car crash. During her year long recovery where she learned to speak and walk normally again she had an epithany that she had spent her whole life focusing on material objects and her career. This in her words steered her life in a new direction and she decided to spent the rest of her life living in the moment and doing whatever she could to make a positive impact on the future. She embarked on a spiritual quest which let her to Humboldt County, California where a group of environmentalist we’re protesting the clear cutting of a grove of California Redwood trees by loggers. They had a plan to stop the loggers by having someone sit in one tree affectionately called Luna by the environmentalists for one week. Luna was one thousand years old, 200 feet tall and in danger of being cut down. When the enviromenrs asked for someone to volunteer Julia Butterfly Hill was the only one who stepped forward. So she ascended the tall tree and stayed there for 738 days until the logging company agreed to spare Luna and the rest of the trees in the grove. This is her story.
