Cassie
works hard to keep her group members motivated and aware of issues,
while making sure they get jobs to match their interests and skills.
The rewards are great - she loves seeing group members discover their
potential, or brainstorm to find novel ways to get their message out to
the public.
"I also find it exciting when one of our activities has the desired impact - for instance, when we get into the media," she says.
In her other life, Cassie works with people who have disabilities. "I feel humbled and inspired by these people in our community," says Cassie. "Through my work with Greenpeace I also feel as though I'm meeting my obligation to contribute to society and the planet, so that it is a more harmonious and healthy place."
An inspiration to all of us, Cassie knows you don't always have to be 'dyed-in-the-wool' environmentalist to make important changes. "People in the green movement have subtly and not-so-subtly inspired me to make changes in my life, so that now I'm more at peace within my environment," she says.
