Over recent years I have been involved in the climate project, participating in both live and online events. I have also contributed to correct information and I have subsidised climate campaigns and projects. I have participated actively and politically in climate protection campaigns.

I plan to fulfill my mission through awareness raising, education and action within my business school. I am motivated to show to my fellow students that a small action can have a huge impact for our planet. Firstly, I will give clear order of magnitude when it comes to ecological matters. Secondly, I will point out some simple actions within sustainable food and transportation topic, which I believe are easier steps for people to begin with. Thirdly, I will endevour to learn from those who have other expertise.

I am the founder of the non-profit clothing exchange and donation platform and conscious women's community "Giver Tag". Nowadays, the ever-increasing popularity of "clothing swapping" and reuse is one of the best ways to combat the rampant consumerism that fast fashion imposes on us. The clothing and footwear industry accounts significant greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the textile industry is responsible for large amounts of microplastics entering water bodies. The damage and impact of climate change are immeasurable, but even big changes require small steps, which I invite the women of my country to take together. Will you join too?

As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I will organise a documentary film festival for public and school children in socially excluded area to raise their awareness about climate change and climate justice issues.

My challenge as ambassador of the European Climate Pact is to raise awareness of the involvement and action of cities in favor of the ecological transition and to disseminate good practices in order to help other European cities in their actions.

Convinced that collective intelligence will make it possible to meet environmental challenges, my actions will be to put forward policies, initiatives and projects that will guarantee a sustainable future. I also want to reduce the gap between all the actors of change: cities, citizens, associations, researchers, companies.

I am 25 years old and an environmental engineer. In addition to my professional career in climate action, I have been doing voluntary work in this area for the last six years through the environmental association FOCA - Focus On Critical Actions.

Having also been involved in other social volunteering projects, I have created a holistic commitment to promote a sustainable and just climate transition, which include activities such as the following:

- An awareness-raising session with young people at risk

- Creation of awareness-raising content for dissemination in social media or presentations

- Creation of a manual of good environmental practices for young people and youth associations.

As an Ambassador, I must give the urgent message that we need to act. That everyone can act, but also has the responsibility to do so. Today, it is about changing the way we live, consume, use our resources on earth. I want to accompany people from all generations, and prove that there are many solutions out there, if we give ourselves the possibilities to consider our future as sustainable.

I am the Climate Change Mitigation Manager in AWorld. In AWorld, the official platform of the ACT NOW campaign of the United Nations aimed at empowering citizens in climate action, I deal with all climate/carbon related issues. I am often a speaker at events organised by both non-profit and for-profit organisations where I share scientifically-sound information which can inform and influence change in our unsustainable lifestyles and decision-making. I have started using my social media with the same goal. Coming for academia, my main purpose in life is to incrase the accessibility of environmental, ecological and climate knowledge to everyone, ensuring the delivery of reliable and scientific concepts in simple and accessible language.

My name is Dima. I was born in Latvia, but been living in many different countries in Europe since.

I am musician, scuba diver, video maker and environmentalist. After making a career in music I devoted myself fully to the nature protection. I have became vegan in 2008 after watching documentary "Earthlings". That is when I recognised the power of video camera. Since then I have been volunteering for environment restoration, nature and wildlife protection with many different organisations and projects.

Now I use the super power of the camera to change the values of our society. I would love to see a world when planting a tree is more "cool" than a new Iphone. I think biodiversity is magic, and we need not only to preserve it, but also make it thrive. That is my aim for the future, to volunteer more, to make more videos and never stop!

I am a student at the University of Luxembourg, a delegate for Sustainability, and president of the Student Association for Sustainability. As an Ambassador, I will organise weekly events and meetings over the year to come. I want to involve students directly as they are today's and tomorrow's citizens. I am ready to collaborate with the local coordinator and the European community of ambassadors to promote the European Climate Pact. I am willing to create a solid local team that will be then ready to spread awareness on climate change, the environment, and sustainability for the future.

I plan to take a "glocal" approach, working for climate action at the local level and communicating my knowledge about European and International green policies. On the one hand, my interest is to share knowledge about European policies on the environment, climate action and sustainability with my networks (Opino Juris readers and Instagram profile). On the other hand, I want to continue to promote projects with our association and local community, from waste collection to nature care to education on various initiatives, including EU initiatives. My goal is to promote EU initiatives and policies and make them accessible to citizens. I want citizens to be aware and motivated to act.

I'm a philosopher and I decided to take action against climate change starting with school students. My projects aim to make young students (ages 12-13) aware of the strong power they have in taking action against climate change, influencing parents and friends. I started from two schools in Abruzzo, Italy, but I want my project to be an example to others. 

Some years ago, I also started working with the University of Ferrara on Circular Economy projects, in order to find the best way to communicate how to change the process of industrialization into a new approach, eco-design for example. The entrepreneurs do not immediately understand how useful it is to reduce gas emissions, reduce waste, etc... until they connect it to the advantage that being carbon-free is directly linked to better living, a better future for us all, and also an increased value of the brand.

University Researchers are a unique and rich source of information that can be applied with success to solve the problems of the companies. Together they are a great team to face the new challenges of this ecological transition and not only.

I am the co-founder of Cycling 4 Climate, a foundation which aims to make working on sustainability fun through cycling. I am planning to organise various cycling events to raise awareness, and stimulate action for the climate.

As an ambassador, I want the work that I do to be amplified. I want to have more youth organisations and young people in general involved in climate discussions. From workshops, to protests, to academic reports, to localised actions that could be proposed by youth organisations themselves, I want to keep the discussion going and for those discussions to be transformed into actions by those who have the power to make true change.

I am a dedicated advocate for climate action and sustainability. As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I am committed to making a positive impact on the environment and my minority community. My primary focus is on organising educational workshops, where I aim to inspire and educate the next generation about the importance of sustainable living and climate responsibility. Through engaging presentations, informative articles, and interactive workshops, I will empower participants to take concrete steps towards a greener future. Together, we'll work towards a more sustainable, climate-conscious Europe.

I am a 27-year-old ICT teacher, leading "Mladi za Đakovo," and actively engaged in local NGOs. As a Climate Pact ambassador, I will promote climate education in schools, establish a community eco-center, and partner with NGOs for tree-planting, waste reduction, and clean-up projects. I will also advocate for sustainable urban planning and green infrastructure in Đakovo, aiming to showcase our city as a model of climate action within the European Climate Pact network.

I am a dedicated advocate for transforming the fashion industry towards sustainability. With a passion for creating a positive impact, my vision is to be at the forefront of change, raising my voice and pioneering initiatives to reshape the fashion landscape. I am committed to promoting sustainable practices through active engagement, leveraging my role to make a change throughout all levels globally. I aim to contribute to a liveable world for future generations. 

As a geologist specialising in the study of past climate change, I have gained invaluable insights into the forcings shaping our planet. My work, today focused on Mediterranean wetlands, has been a journey of discovery, highlighting the profound impacts of human-induced factors on our ecosystems. However, our planet is constantly under the influence of natural forces and understanding the past is crucial for comprehending the present and shaping the future.  I am committed to educating people about biodiversity, flora, vegetation, and climate change, engaging citizens including students. Partnering with the Green Office in Florence, I promote sustainability, bridging theory and practice. With my background and experience, I aim to drive meaningful and lasting change towards a more sustainable and resilient future for our planet. The knowledge of our climatic past is integral to our journey towards a brighter environmental future.
