“I met Cathy when she walked into a classroom at Golden Gate University to join a Toastmasters club I was coaching. A professor had recommended that she join the club to improve her communication skills and practice her English, which I think is her third language. Cathy is dedicated, fearless, and really cares about people. It's easy to look at how hard she works and write her off as a "tiger" who is only looking to succeed, but she always has time to help other people and wants everyone around her to succeed, too. Cathy took over the role of Vice President of Public Relations of GGU Toastmasters and clearly loved to see other people discover the benefits of the program. New Toastmasters are often shy about giving their first speech. Cathy was always warm and encouraging, but she knew when to just tell people: "It's time for you to give a speech." She was willing to take chances, and competed in a speech contest in front of dozens of people when she had been in the club only a few months. I was sad to see Cathy leave the club, but she had bigger opportunities in South Bay. I know that wherever she goes she will succeed.”

Encouraging Chinese to use clean energy!
According to an article in USA Today, “In China, Air Pollution Report Brings Despair, humor”, “a major study released in the USA found that air pollution from burning coal in North China has slashed 5.5 years of life expectancy, compared with the less-polluted south. The major increased illness rate in Beijing is lung cancer”.

According to an article in USA Today, “In China, Air Pollution Report Brings Despair, humor”, “a major study released in the USA found that air pollution from burning coal in North China has slashed 5.5 years of life expectancy, compared with the less-polluted south. The major increased illness rate in Beijing is lung cancer”. According to the article “Exposure to Smog Is Severe Hazard”, from China Daily, a Chinese government official English newspaper, the lung cancer rate in Beijing had increased by 60 percent in the last decade even though the smoking rate has not increased. In the same article, Israel and China discovered that air pollution from burning coal in the areas in north China above the Huai River, populated with 500 million people, was 55 percent higher than in the south. China has tried to move away from coal factories as they look for solutions. Air pollution also harms Chinese society in other ways. For example, according to an article published in the New York Times, in June 2013, “Outrage Grows Over Air Pollution and China’s Response”, hundreds of flights have been canceled because of smog in Beijing. Many Chinese people complain that officials are not transparent about air quality or about improving the environment. However, it is not only the government’s responsibility. Every citizen is also guilty.
