I don't have many experiences working in this field but I  am here to acquire them.  I did camp in wild places in Brazil  and  always wanted  to do something to protect this places from human destruction.  I also have a project  that would  generate  jobs,  education, and  increase green areas in the city of Rio, Brazil.  My brother  is a n independent  film director and  faculty at Columbia College Chicago, and we are working together in a  film project  on how Greenpeace was created and  about the nuclear bombs  in Alaska.  I am really interested in joining this group  and I  would love to  do anything I can to help it out!   The Roosevelt Institution is a nonpartisan, nonprofit national think tank devoted to bringing students' policy ideas to the policy process.
