Luna is a 200 ft tall redwood tree that towers on a ridge deep within a privately owned forest in northern California. You may remember Julia Butterfly Hill's remarkable 2-year "tree sit" in the 1990's that helped save the tree and shed light on the indiscriminate clearcutting of redwood forests. But after an agreement was reached to save the redwood and the national news media left, another crisis arose that threatened Luna's existence, introduced new heroes, and ushered in a new era of collaboration. Guests Stuart Moskowitz Board Member and lead "Luna Covenant" monitor, Sanctuary Forest sanctuaryforest.org Dennis Yniguez Registered Consulting Arborist (ASCA), and a Board Certified Master Arborist (ISA). He received B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of California, Berkeley, and his J.D. degree from the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law. treedecisions.com Tree Story Short Carol Kingsbury Books About Luna and Redwood Trees Cook, Diane, and Len Jenshel.   Wise Trees.  Abrams Books.  New York.  2017.
