Emily Hunter is the daughter of the late Robert Hunter, founding president of Greenpeace. Like her father, she is environmental activist and journalist who has campaigned on a number of environmental causes from saving whales to fighting against climate change and deforestation. She previously hosted a show called “IMPACT” for MTV News Canada, examining pertinent issues like the Tar Sands and G20 summits for a Generation Y demographic, and later published her first book called “The Next Eco-Warriors” (Conari Press, 2011).
Today, she works with the Mobilization Lab at Greenpeace to support people-powered campaigns that empower more people to lead and champion causes.
