SANTIAGO CANYON – Local activists jumped to their feet and applauded actress Daryl Hannah's call for a paradigm shift away from the consumption of fossil fuels, putting a stop to mountaintop removal and stopping the Keystone XL pipeline.

"We can't live without our water, soil, air and biodiversity," Hannah said. "We need to get off our butts and do it. We need to get together and realize we're on the same team whether we're blue or red, Democrat or Republican. We want to live. It's about loving something and protecting it."

The Hollywood actress, known for protesting against mountaintop removal in the coal mining industry, fighting human trafficking, speaking out against environmental toxins and recently arrested in front of the White House for opposing the Keystone XL pipeline, was the keynote speaker Saturday night at the 8th annual Tree Huggers Ball.

I wonder if she said anything about the chair she is sitting on? It’s probably made from wood.

I have a Stihl farm boss with an 18 inch bar. It’ll wear you out.

I would dare say Hannah could not live without nature-created oil and human-refined gas for her cars and studio cars and vehicles, coal plants burning natural coal to make electricity for her houses and multiple electricity using gadgets and appliances. Seriously even technology to get off grid costs a lot of money and when things go breaky breaky it’s a lot of money to fix. Those companies also need to use a lot of energy to make those things.

She has that terse socialist angst to her lips now.

Such an angry lady now.

Hannah also fails to realize that “clean” water - potable - costs a lot of money to create. If you don’t want a lot of disease in you. Couldn’t survive without that big carbon footprint and distribution network.

Obviously, she was rode hard and put away wet way too many times.

She used to be pretty. Liberalism eats away at the soul and the funk changes out the face.

Daryl Hannah: a mind is a terrible thing to waste. All she has to do is open her mouth and confirm that she’s a blooming idiot.

Whoa! isn't the word for it.

I was just thinking that I thought of her as really hot back around the time of "Blade Runner."

My wife says I’m getting better.

She even likes the fact that finally (at 64) my hair is starting to gray.)
