Project TGIF might not stand for what you think it does. In 2008, Cassandra Lin launched Project Turn Grease Into Fuel—when Lin was only ten years old. While the Rhode Island native wanted to do something to help the community, she was also concerned about sustainability and global warming, which resulted in TGIF—a program whose goal is to recycle cooking oil and convert it into biodiesel, which is then donated to companies that provide heating to families in need.
Lin, a delegate of the United Nations Environment Programme, has another project in the works, too, she’d like to design a zero-waste community.
