This week on "Like It Is," we chronicle the extraordinary efforts of environmentalist Julia Butterfly Hill, whose remarkable journey of activism captivated the nation. In an inspiring and unforgettable act of defiance, 23-year-old Julia lived in a 200-foot tall, 1000-year-old California Redwood tree named "Luna" for 738 days to prevent it from being cut down by a lumber company.
Julia's fierce advocacy for the environment began in California, where she embarked on her mission to save Luna from destruction. Her commitment to protecting this ancient Redwood drew national attention, particularly as she refused to descend despite repeated calls from local officials and the timber company.
Join us as we explore Julia's profound connection to the environment and the lengths she was willing to go to protect it. Listen to her first-hand account of the fight, challenges, and the lasting impact of her courageous stand.
Tune in to this episode for an inspiring story, Julia Butterfly Hill's tale is a powerful reminder of the difference one person can make in the fight to protect our planet.
