Climate change is one of the biggest challenges of our lives. This global concern has emerged in the international community since the 1972 Stockholm Conference, but now, we need climate actions and a strong international climate policy, urgently. Everything in our planet is interconnected and each stakeholder is committed to ensure the present and future generations rights. This is my personal motivation and I will be devoted to fight against climate change within the teaching framework.

Reuse - recycle - repeat  

Enabling the implementation of Children’s Rights in policy and business for the sake of all current and future European citizens.

We're only here for a while, we've only borrowed our planet from our children and grandchildren. Therefore, it is our duty to leave it in such a state that life on Earth is not only possible but also not burdensome. As an ambassador of the Climate Pact, I want to convince representatives of local authorities, business and all residents that reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, saving water or circular economy is a necessity today, not a temporary trend.

Urša Zgojznik is the president of Ecologists Without Borders Association, a non-profit association dedicated to improving the environmental situation, focusing on waste management. They organised the largest environmental campaign in the history of Slovenia, Let's Clean Up Slovenia, which activated 14% of the population of Slovenia, they are national coordinator for Slovenia in Zero Waste Europe network. She works mostly on projects for reducing and reusing waste, Zero Waste and circular economy.

I am the founder of the Zenaga Foundation gGmbH and a passionate climate and environmentalist. Through my membership in various organizations I have a wealth of experience. By operating several PV systems, my energy surplus house and other measures, I am completely carbon neutral with my family since 2016. Sustainability is for my private and business the basis of my actions. In my lectures, workshops, CSR Coaching, Actions and Projects, I tackle climate protection.

I am a naturalist by choice and hobby. I believe we are all naturalists at core and that working close to nature is the way we will cultivate the motivation to make bigger changes, very much needed to tackle the climate crisis. I spend as much time as I can just observing how life around us unfolds. Plants growing in unexpected places, spiders losing camouflage, trees standing in front of any adversity. This type of observation brought me into gardening and permaculture. This is how I grow food for myself and family, clean, slow, a garden that is home for every living creature, that is self sustainable and can produce a harvest even in the worst years.

As a Pact Ambassador I hope to bring these ideas closer to people. I aim to instruct and inform, offer people practical knowledge about growing their own food or selecting better food. 

Taking care of trees, planting of new trees, protection and preservation of birds and wildlife.

I am a PhD student focusing on forest carbon potential, especially in old-growth forests. I have been working for international climate-forestry projects since 2008. I have experience in land sector climate policy, LULUCF sector.

I believe in science-based solutions. My motivation is to enhance the sustainable use of forests by using climate-smart forest management in a context of growing bioeconomy. Awareness and understanding of climate reality make a difference, therefore I enjoy connecting stakeholders.
