Suzanne Schreiber is focusing her organization, Dream Green Volusia, on saving what's left of her county's natural places

She launched her own non profit grassroots environmental organization in Volusia county, Dream Green Volusia when she started seeing large tracts of undeveloped lands containing forests and wildlife be razed for development across her county.  Despite being an underdog against deep pockets from special interests, she has had an impact on saving her county's wild places for the future. Volusia county, with beautiful beaches, the Indian River lagoon and major springs, represents a microcosm of the environmental challenges facing all of Florida.
