It's not everyday that a citizen, however concerned and dedicated, can get any level of power - public or private - to change course, even when it's a matter of the common good. Meet the incredible Sandy Rowley, a gentle powerhouse of commitment when it comes to nature and public health. Sandy spearheaded the effort to get the city of Reno, NV and its parks department to create pesticide-free city areas and parks. After a couple years of researching the issue, getting like-minded folks together, insistently making phone calls and speaking at city council meetings, Sandy has put Reno on the map when it comes to pesticide-free parks. She didn't do it all alone, but most folks in Reno credit her for setting a process in motion that's now a national example of successful environmental activism.
