European Climate Pact Ambassador in Belgium

I am a keen supporter of the EU's climate goals, and happy to contribute to their realisation in both my personal and professional lives. I have co-authored a number of city climate action plans and try to 'walk the talk' in my everyday life. I will focus on any hybrid personal-professional action I can undertake to further support the Climate Pact, especially by sharing my knowledge with citizens, enterprises and local authorities.

European Climate Pact Ambassador in Italy

I am a climate activist, a leading member of my local scout group in Monaghan, Ireland, and a representative of the Irish second-level students’ union (ISSU) Ulster. I work on sustainability projects and events with my community, scout troop and ISSU.

My mission as an Ambassador is simply stated: we need to do more.

I will put my heart and soul in this project because I believe that for all of us to have a green and prosperous future, we need to advocate, inform and exchange knowledge with those who are not yet aware or involved in climate action.

As an International Relations student, I wish to focus on advocating on climate action at national level and make use of my expertise through research. To do more, everybody needs to know more.

Over the last years, we have seen a multiplication of extreme climate events. These events have had a major empirical impact in Science as they found a direct and intersectional link between social-economic background and exposure to vulnerabilities.

My mission is to to materialize this link into Public Policy and Law: to provide credible and concrete information to government and create a channel of interaction between low-income communities and law-makers.

Change takes courage.

As an Engineer, I'm quite aware of the possibilities the new technologies offer to reduce the carbon footprint in all areas of business activity. Although everybody knows we have a problem with the global warming, most of the small and medium companies aren´t still aware of the potential they have to reduce the global emissions. I intend to spread this message, and help the companies to seek the best solutions to reduce their carbon footprint and become part of the solution.

I switched to an Electric Vehicle (EV) as I wanted to do my part in protecting climate. But I felt I needed to do more. That’s why I started convincing other drivers to join me and start driving an EV via Uber Green.

I’m looking forward to sharing my experience from the road through the Climate Pact forum. I want to share my feedback on EVs and e-charging infrastructures with other drivers, and inspire them to switch to greener transport.

European Climate Pact Ambassador in Austria

As a consultant for climate protection and decarbonisation, every day I work actively with companies to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. In my work, I often notice that there are knowledge gaps about different measures contributing to climate protection. That's why, in my role as an Ambassador, it's important to me to communicate relevant scientific findings in an understandable way, especially to young people, and to bring people closer to a carbon-neutral society by empowering young leaders of tomorrow.
