Emily is today's contributor to our spring blog relay - catch up on entries from other Greenpeace staff.
I've been working
at Greenpeace for just over two years, before that I was a volunteer with both
the climate team and the active supporters unit as well as an activist. I now
work in the actions unit - a job I love - we deal with the logistics and equipment
involved in all of our non-violent direct actions.
Today I feel as
if I am half here in our peaceful, light-filled office in London,
and half in Brussels
filled with mixed feelings of anticipation, adrenalin, moral strength and the
odd moment of fear. I have just returned from a three day trip to Brussels where I went with a team of 38 UK activists to be part of a huge
direct action that involved 340 activists from 20 different countries.
