BLOG 1 - ONE-THREE-ONE ESSAY

Starting point of Greenpeace volunteer !!!


Do you know the name “GREENPEACE” or have you ever seen any activities they do? Someone would say YES, but I believe that they won’t really know what exactly we do if they don’t be a part of us!

Greenpeace is a non-government organization or NGO that doesn’t depend on or receive the money from any organizations. We do the campaign to confront the environment criminal peacefully by doing real action due to changing people’s attitudes and behaviors to protect conserve our environment.



I proudly say that I am a volunteer of Greenpeace. In last big summer, I’m so bored and didn’t have anything to do, so I found something interesting that should be get benefit as well. Accidentally, I searched for the website to apply as a volunteer and found the announcement of Greenpeace on the volunteer website. I decided to type my personal details on their online application and sent it out. I don’t think I would be chosen because Greenpeace is an international organization and might have many people want to join with them. But one day, the officer called to me and invited to attend the special course of training to be a volunteer and that is how I start this kind of work.

During the training course, I’ve got many experiences and knowledge from the senior volunteers and the officers. I think they’re so cool and sacrifice a lot not for themselves but for our environment of everyone in the world. I could suddenly make a decision at that moment that “I must be a part of Greenpeace!”

After the training, I extremely want to be a volunteer and keep on this opportunity to change the world. But we cannot exactly change it without the collaboration from everybody to give their big supports and continue the campaign to make awareness in value of natural and environmental protection in our country even more.
