Activist Julia Butterfly Hill has been in constant motion since spending 2 years sitting in the canopy of an ancient redwood tree. You might remember that, with some help from steelworkers and environmentalists, she successfully negotiated to permanently protect the 1,000-year-old tree named Luna and a nearly 3-acre buffer zone surrounding it. Julia travels 150 days a year in her mission to inspire, support and network individuals, organizations and communities to nurture Earth. Look for her at this year's Green Festivals--two high-energy events promoting sustainability, ecology and social justice. To learn more about Hill and her work, visit www.circleoflifefoundation.org.
