- Julia Butterfly Hill was interviewed on June 23, 2021 by Trees Foundation’s Director of Development and Outreach, Kerry Reynolds. Julia Butterfly Hill ascended Luna-a giant 1,500-year-old redwood tree near Stafford, California-in December 1997. She lived in Luna for 738 days, until finally descending in December 1999 when an agreement was made with Pacific Lumber Company that protected Luna and a 200-foot buffer zone surrounding the tree.
she still looks as stunning as ever
This is one amazing lady. I am personally quite proud of her. I lived near Luna when she began her tree-sit. I witnessed the actual contempt for the environment that many locals felt. Yes, I saw folks go out of their way to trash the environment, as they saw the environment as being a threat to their livelihoods. Think about that, attacking the very environment that sustains your life.
I'm so sorry you have suffered, Julia. Thank you for making the world a better place.
I’m so glad I found this video. What an inspirational woman.
It makes me so sad that such a beautiful human has suffered so much in her life after doing so much work for this earth🥺🥺
One of my most admired people ever! Bless you, Julia, you are such a light in this world!
IT'S ABT TIME Hollywood should make A MOVIE ON HER 🙌😍🤩
Her book " Legacy of Luna" came out during a time that touched me and changed me forever. She is my Hero
I just knew about Julia n Luna, would the book be a good gift?
A few days ago I remembered this fascinating story of Luna and want to make a drawing called "Courage", related to Julia Butterfly. When my friend told me about her several years ago, I watched everything I could find online about her. Her courage amazed me and at the same time, it scared me to see how my overwhelming fear at that time prevented me from doing what I really want to do in life. Now I feel much better about myself and started to make a series of drawings this year, called Poetry of Life, which is related to various issues we have as humanity. And so I thought of drawing this Luna phenomenon and shed light on this story. I have ordered the book "Legacy of Luna", and I can't wait to read it. I might get some better insights that will help me to make a powerful drawing of it.
shes still beautiful. ❤️
Wow, what an amazing human being. And an inspiration on many levels for me personally and I'm sure many many others. Can't believe she was hit by a car too as I was. I'm trying to get through it.✌ 🙏
she’s aging beautifully !
God bless you sweetie- may you have ease, and firmness on your path, and be filled with divine Light Peace and Love. I love you sister
She deserves a fund me page
Amazing Lady. Thank you
Such an amazing beautiful person! So inspiring!
As a fellow introvert that made a career in Training and Development, I GET what you are saying! It's the passion that overcomes the introvert preference.
She deserves the whole world 😭❤
When I saw you doing this and saw you in the news...not only did I crush super hard on you but you explained to me through your efforts, the absolute importance of not only saving these ancient living beings, but all of nature. Thank you and omg I still have a crush 😅❤️
Julia has been my hero since i was around age 12 (I'm 23 now) so it's great to see this interview! She looks still so youthful and beautiful ❤️
Julia was my partner for a partner yoga portion of a class at the Midwest Yoga Conference in 2010ish. Wonderful person
Her spirit is indestructible
so sorry you've had such a hard time with your health considering all you've done for others. I wish you an easier and more joyful personal life.
Such a Wonderful human sister deserves a pain free days. Much love
If every one was the same as julia this planet would still carry no scars from us humans .
What do you mean by scsrs?
@@Marc-rf9ei we leave scars as in foot print 👣
The pollution in East Asia
If everyone was like her this planet would have zero balance. Balance is key. You do not have to be balanced the world does sometimes that means a to g extreme as she did.
There would also be a lot less love.
Story as old as humanity...it's always a choice which "Wolf we choose to feed".And to your team point and diversity. People once tried to rope me into playing a mediation type role with activists. Meanwhile to your point of people recognizing Difference & being okay with that ~ yes! to agreeing to disagree and the work of Barbara Marx Hubbard that put the emphasis on Win/Win ( as opposed to the far too normalized win/lose mentality or who's right or who's better. It is possible. It requires poeple to be invested wholeheartedly in the good of the whole & keep letting go of me, mine, "ego" and the love of so-called "power", (usually more like domination). It's the not of all indigenous, but it is the way of those that lived( & live )harmoniously with nature and one another. Thank you for all you continue to do, may we each open to our part and live it. Great well being
What an amazing woman - thank you Julia ❤
Long live julia
I think of you and Luna so often. Thank you.
Wow she is still pretty
A real hero
So Julia, introvert- you have come to your true self. When I hear you I am immediately awake to the bone. You represent such a mirror!!!
Hi, Julia! The girl who walked across America for Democracy here, back in Seattle and teaching a new generation about what our kick-ass Gen tried to do. Amazing how few young Seattlites even know about the WTO! I always say that Earthfirsters were the bravest, most badass group of humans I’ve ever met, and am so glad that your videos from Luna are still out there, and I’m definitely passing them on. So much of our history has disappeared, but I’m still singing your praises, sister! Keep up the fight. I believe we’ve already won! Every action produces an equal effect. We’re just waiting for the conditions to be right for our youth to take over. Very much looking forward to that! Glad to see you’re still out there kicking ass. Stay safe and healthy!
✊
Your a Gift from the Creator ,Thank You for your medicine of Love and understanding of All Our Relations!!! This is Brother John
What an amazing message from Julia. So much dedication to change and devotion to truth. Thanks to the Trees Foundation for this wonderful interview.
What a beautiful soul.
indeed
Julia was and is my hero! God bless her!
Thank you, Julia!
beautiful human being
I wish I had heard Julia Hill news before, I wrote a children's book for kids about how important trees are in the world. My main character is an ent and I gave her the name Lupe. I was almost close to Luna 🌳
Thank you for being so open. May you continue to do great work in whatever capacity you're able.
❤glad to find this you tube glad to hear you continue to do wonderful work Sorry you have been bearing so much pain & difficulty grateful you have endured & continue to share your beauty & clarity of vision. 🌴❤🌍
I'm so sorry for the series of unfortunate events but your story grew my heart. Get better. Live well.
Heart of a lion 💜 🦁
Wonderful interview.
She's still gorgeous and inspiring
wow - she really saved the tree
Inspirational human being! I was honored to meet her at a Veg Festival in Italy in 2007
I can imagine!!! I was off my socks literally when I met Julia in Omega., New York, me being from avery small country, Holland.
And she’s so beautiful
she is an angel here on mother earth
What a wonderful human.
What's with all the STILL pretty beautiful stunning fine comments? Are you surprised? Why wouldn't she be beautiful? She lived in a 1500 year old tree for two years and didn't get hit with the ugly stick once
Luna told you to bend with the storm, don’t fight. Allow miraculous healing and rejuvenation happen
You know she has been through a lot.. Currently she is done with" Butterfly Hill "by the sound of it and is working on her health.. Julia has had some bad luck health wise etc.. I believe she has moved on and is working on her second half of her life.. You go girl..
YOU ARE ROYALTY! 👑
Strong work, Julia 💪
Thanks a lot
My favorite story really. ❤
Love the earth
Her book inspired me to become involved in activism
Es la mejor forma de pasar a la historia, hacer un acto de valor tan grande.
There's a shirt on your wiki that says "Activism is Patriotism". I've learned over the years and met some middle agers who have devoted their lives to volunteerism, riding buses just like me little Americorps who makes like $9K/year. It's like the most extraordinary people are making sandwiches at homeless shelters and doing random jobs to get by once hollywood is gone after their major event (in your case Luna), but you're again left to fend for yourself. Kinda like Forest Gump stories, but without nice endings. I'm glad youtube is able to document what you humbly stand for. Also, loved your definition of courage!
Julia you are still a very beautiful and strong lady.
She still beautiful
God Bless you
Kako čudovito bitje je Julia .
Did anyone set up a go fund for Julia's recovery from all the injuries and the Lyme ??
Many arborisrs, and even more foresters, are introverts. That's why there is training for municipal foresters to communicate what they know.
Tq Super Julia
Julia I am tree lover from Nepal
Love is all there is everything else is fear based delusion and indifference to unconditional love and forgiveness. All love all lives Olives ☝️💜💫
Such a remarkable woman
Hi beautiful, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you are amazing, Ishwar creater has given you a very beautiful heart , you are a savior, your family is very lucky even this nature that tree 🌳 is very lucky because of you , wow you are just amazing
She looks beautiful still
❣️
Why didn’t anyone made a movie about her? Amazon needs to get on this pronto!!!
JULIA...I HOPE THIS REACHES YOU AS IT IS A VERY IMPORTANT...9 YEARS NOW TWO STUDENT INVENTED A DEVICE ABLE TO EXTINGUISH FIRES WITH SOUND!!! THAN DARPA TOOK THE PATENT AND WE NEVER SO THIS FROM THAN...THIS DEVICE CAN BE MADE IN LARGER SIZES AND LITERALLY END ALL FOREST FIRES
❤😊
How can I reach out to her?
wow - respect
I am sad to hear her suffering. I hope this message gets to her. I hope Julia you ditch alopathic medicine, and turn to nature, natural (fruit and veggies) food and countless alternative terapies that help tremendously. All can be regenerated. Bles you
Sound is a bit odd at my end.. did she say she got in a 4th car accident?! Did she also say she lost a soulmate she just met to cancer within six months?!
She's still fine.
Back when people took real action and do something about the wrongs int he world rather than just hashtag on Twitter!
She is so easy to just listen
The gunk under her toenails is better than me
I know you won't read this Julia but as an activist you influenced my daily habits and respect for all of life even deeper than I was doing before 1997. I will look to see how I can offer some financial help in your recovery!!
Julia Hill ì fell in love with you for what you did in 1997❤
me too
Real life Lorax
Julia lives in a Log cabin now heated by fuel oil.
«trees told me…”, and the interviewer after this - “how are you?”
Really???
There would also be no humans. Think of all the loved lost. Children kissed husband and wives embrassed
Oh my God, it's so embarrassing to hear the interviewer after Julia
Luna is not really / In the middle of nowhere /...
BEANS!
Actually I think you should seek an audience with the Pope Francis , as he is writing a new follow up document to Laudato Si , his environmental work On Care for Our Common Home.
I wonder if she knows the work of Joe Dispenza
So sad that Julia never got married, never had kids, she never really got past her 15 minutes of fame. She looks totally shot out, totally used up and burned out. So sad. But at least she has nice teeth. And she has her projects.
Sooo the tree talked to her lmao oakayyyy lmao
Don't knock it till you've tried it, bud. Humans have much to learn from trees.
