Julia Butterfly Hill is an American environmental activist best known for her remarkable two-year tree-sit in a 1,500-year-old California redwood tree named “Luna,” aimed at preventing it from being cut down by loggers. From December 1997 to December 1999, she lived 180 feet above the ground, enduring extreme weather conditions and isolation to spotlight the devastating effects of logging on ancient forests. Her peaceful protest ultimately succeeded in saving Luna and brought national and international attention to the importance of forest conservation. Hill’s story remains a powerful symbol of environmental activism and continues to inspire movements for ecological protection around the world. #ocean #art #youth #climateaction #artivism #teens #oceanconservation #teens #activism #juliabutterfly
