Treesitters Needed ASAP!!!

by Gambit (contactefhum [at] gmail.com)
With three days to go until the logging date, forest defenders are ascending into the canopy to protect old-growth redwoods and spotted owls. More feral forest friends are needed ASAP.

Greetings to all friends of the forest.

I live up in a tree called Nautica, in the McKay Tract in Humboldt County. She and all the trees around us are threatened by imminent clearcutting by "Green Diamond" inc. They have permission to log this forest starting Sunday, February 15.

We have a rapidly growing tree-sit and are trying to tie in as many trees as possible to preserve maximum habitat for the spotted owls. We need more people to ascend into the canopy ASAP to help protect these trees.

If you want to tree-sit (even if you never have before!) or if you can help in other ways, please email us ASAP or visit efhumboldt.org.

MUCH LOVE
