Sue was born on the east coast and spent her spare time as a kid seeking out the nature she could find in the suburban neighborhood where she grew up. Climbing trees in her yard, biking to the small brook not far from home and swinging on her swing set were the places she frequented to connect with the “outdoors”. Several experiences shaped Sue’s deep concern for protecting our precious planet. In elementary school, her fifth grade teacher was the one to instill the importance of recycling and saving energy by turning off lights in the rooms of your house that no one was in. In college, her first activism involved participating in several protests against logging of the Amazon forest to raise cheap cattle for meat that was used in the fast food industry.
