The issue of climate change covers all spheres of life. In order for every inhabitant of the planet to be a participant in this process, it is necessary to have above all awareness on climate issues. 

Through theoretical and practical education among children and young people, I plan to achieve a better environmental culture, raise awareness and take personal responsibility.

I am a geography teacher committed to spreading the message related to climate change, to deepen the scientific issues related to the impacts of climate change in an objective aimed at making students part of the solution, as individuals and as a society.Thanks to the skills acquired in my two degrees in literature and clinical psychology and rehabilitation, I can see a real personal need in the students.

Je suis président de la fondation & Association IPOMA, ambassadeur de Paix de la Fédération de paix universelle et dans ma fonction d’ambassadeur Pact Climat nous allons organiser plusieurs ateliers de formation et journées de sensibilisation dans des banlieues ou quartiers où il y a plus de familles en situation de précarité sur le climat, l’environnement et de sensibiliser les jeunes sur le développement durable.

Translation - I am the President of the IPOMA Foundation & Association, Ambassador for Peace of the Universal Peace Federation and in my role as Pact Climate Ambassador I am going to organise several training workshops and awareness-raising days in suburbs or neighborhoods where there are many families in precarious situations in relation to climate impacts and degraded evironment, aiming to raise awareness among young people on sustainable development. 

A passionate humanist, I love simple things and simple people. Admiring the beauty of our planet, I want to contribute in my own small way to its protection, so that future generations can still marvel at it and not be afraid of it.

As a climate ambassador, I am committed to raising climate change awareness in Mallorca. The tourism industry is our major greenhouse gas emitter, urging an economic model re-evaluation. Rising temperatures threaten tourism, emphasising the climate crisis's severity and the need for diversification.

As a Climate Fresk facilitator, I will host educational workshops to empower participants, turning climate anxiety into action. As a podcaster I will continue addressing environmental impacts and promoting sustainable practices.

The climate crisis can be overwhelming, leaving many feeling helpless. Therefore, I am committed to emphasising the positive progress we are making, rather than solely focusing on negative aspects. We must nurture hope and inspire action, as it is crucial for people to truly understand that combating climate change is not only possible but necessary for our collective well-being.

Environment-safe vehicles were always in the focus of my research and innovation activities. As the coordinator of several European projects in this field I would like to promote green transportation technologies among not only professional communities but also general public through targeted educational events. They should attract first of all young talented people as future high-skilled professionals capable to meet the challenges of climate-friendly society and economy.

As a Climate Ambassador, I will advocate for Ukraine’s green recovery and its contribution to Europe’s net-zero ambition. Even though we live in a very turbulent time, which jeopardises climate action progress, it also equips us with new arguments as to why we should keep pushing. Ukraine’s reconstruction can become a new European role model of how green technologies and climate-friendly solutions can boost the economy, acting as an inspiration for how development can occur alongside nature protection and preservation. I see creating demand for green reconstruction among Ukrainians and other Europeans as my contribution to a greener European Union. 

Born in Valencia, adopted by Paris and with Prague in my heart. Creative civil engineer, engaged public servant and everyday 20km bike commuter. I feel that a lot of uninformed, closed and/or sceptic minds need to be approached and communicated with in a positive and "non washing" way to send the right messages and receive back their doubts and hesitations. I would like to build upon my international and local experience to share and shape new forms of changing our daily habits at home and in particular on professional and local policy levels. I am a person open for discussion and compromises but with strong commitment to obtaining results. Therefore I wish to dedicate my energy, knowledge and networking resources to educate, train and bring arguments to the target group I am able to reach out within the Pact Ambassadors assignment. 

Empowering citizens to shape a greener Europe. By sharing our ideas and inspiring each other, we as Citizens and I as Ambassador, could multiply the collective impact. As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I will lead by example and engage communities in climate action.

I was born in 2001 and I am from Krakow, Poland. My interest in environmental and energy issues started almost as soon as I began my law studies four years ago when I made working on energy law my main pastime. I recently connected with a Polish climate and anti-war initiative called Wschod, with whom I have cooperated ever since. My personal mission is to show people that there are several and efficient ways of affecting the course of climate policies and everyone is welcome to find their place in the actions for greener and more sustainable world. In the coming year, I plan to spread this message by organising workshops, talks and further trasmitting the findings of young energy analysts on crucial matters such as the energy poverty of youth. I also intend to engage the business partners of the renewable energy sector in which I work, in the climate movement. 

Climate change is one of the biggest issue of our century. Building a green Europe will be essential, and can even strengthen the European identity. Over the years, EU institutions have already developed some leading green frameworks within the scope of the European Green Deal. However, for this initiative to succeed, everyone has a part to play in Informing, Inspiring and Including EU citizens in this project. As an ambassador, I aim to facilitate this educational and awareness process.

As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I will continue my every day work towards a sustainable society. We already have ambitious goals, now it is time for bold actions. We need everyone on board: policy-makers, businesses, municipalities, communities, and people. Most importantly, we need to engage future generations; youth and children. My goal is inspire and engage people and organisations to act.

I want to raise awareness among young people and different companies on why climate and sustainability are so important. Using social media, publishing articles and also using a platform of the Water Committee, I want to let businesses and people know that we have no time and we must act now.

Environment and Health Section of European Public Health Association (EUPHA ENV) insists on putting the environmental health protection and evidence-based disease prevention at the heart of the world’s and EU’s Covid-19 recovery process. As a president of EUPHA ENV Section, I will advocate it is important to point out that, above all, the Global Paris Climate Agreement, SDGs and the EU Green Deal should be guiding principles and policy pathways for all the experts, and society at large.

I want to hold polluting companies and corporations accountable for their climate impact. Though consumer awareness content, and lectures, I want to create comprehensive materials that will make it easier for individuals to navigate sustainability, and assist in creating a set of tools that make understanding the impact of products around us simpler.
