As part of Scottish Week in North America, Scottish dignitaries joined Sierra Club Deputy Executive Director Bruce Hamilton, John Muir National Historic Site General Superintendent Martha Lee, and kids from Sierra Club's Inner City Outings program to plant a sapling in the Edgar and Peggy Wayburn Redwood Grove.
The tree-planting was followed by a reception that included a presentation on John Muir's Legacy in a Climate-Challenged World, featuring Michael Russell, Scotland's Cabinet Secretary for Education; John Hutchison, chairman of the John Muir Trust; and Sierra Club Chairman Carl Pope.
