Intern with GREENPEACE USA for Spring Semester 2013
Greenpeace USA —
San Francisco, CA
Do you want to join the fight for climate justice with the world's largest independent environmental organization?
**
Greenpeace has several incredible internships available in our San Francisco office!
Over the last 3 years, Greenpeace has built a nationwide Activist Network to tackle the toughest problems facing our climate, oceans, forests, and communities. The Activist Network activates thousands of Greenpeace supporters, and our interns are at the heart of this cutting-edge remote grassroots organizing program.
**
The Activist Network interns primarily help us connect with our Lead Activists over the phone, email and online social networks to assist them with all of their campaign work in hundreds of communities nationwide. They also help our Activist Network team in San Francisco with all other priorities that arise.

Whether it's activating volunteers and other students across the country or mobilizing people here in San Francisco, you'll gain grassroots activism skills, learn about the environmental movement, gain issue expertise, meet awesome people, and make a real difference! Find out how this isn't your average internship.
