I admire the tree-sitters. The logging companies have had little reverence for the incredible creatures called "trees".

Definitely unsung heroes, working and living to protect living organisms that are hundreds of years old, saving them for future generations to enjoy in their natural states, not as coffee tables and newspapers.

This is good news. One small battle won, many more to go.

Rock on enviros!
