Talk:Tree sitting

message: I think this article is very US centered ignoring a lot of the tree occupations in atleast europe like Nine_Ladies in UK, schinveld in the Netherlands or lappersfort in belgium   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.224.173.134 (talk) 21:22, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  US centered 

message: A 'compare with' seems like a good idea. However, it is still difficult to compare tree-sitting with eco-terrorism because the definition of the second is contentious and likely to be disputed - someone has even slapped a 'controversial' warning on the article.
Compare with: tree-spiking makes far more sense than See also: eco-terrorism because both tree-sitting and tree-spiking are easy to describe, but very different tactics which seek a common end. It is also worth noting that the environmental organisation Earth First! publicly disavowed tree-spiking in 1990. Dirtbiscuit 02:39, 24 Jul 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Feel free to remember there's the rest of the world to think about too! I don't know the legalities of occupying trees in the USA, but in the UK living in a tree is not illegal and thus not criminal. Occupation of land earmarked for development is not illegal either - we have something called 'legal squatting'. So - to suggest tree-sitting is a form of eco-terrrorism because it's ciminal is grossly inaccurate NickW 14:56, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

message: How do the tree-sitters go to the restroom? Do they just take a dump over the side, or do they bring a bucket or something? I would think there's not much privacy up there.. 69.243.41.28 23:16, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: Similar aims, surely warrants a link? While neither is a subset of the other, that isn't a requirement for a link. Infact, the fact that it's called 'see also' implies that the linked to page contains soemthing different. Larklight (talk) 16:47, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Link to Eco-terrorism

message: A handful of people have died over the years while doing this and falling out of trees. Some girl in Oregon died a few years back when she fell. This sort of thing needs to be mentioned in the article. --Ragemanchoo (talk) 07:49, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Deaths?

message: The current article only talks about tree sitting being used as a tool to delay, stall, or bring to light logging that is viewed as controversial. Tree sitting has also been used as a tactic with other radical organizations to stall or bring light to controversial campaigns. How the best way to reflect this in the article? I've included three tree sits (#List of tree sits) that cite the expanded use of tree sits, but would also like to see the article to reflect the broader use of this tactic.
