After developing a group in the healthcare sector, I went on to found 2 startups in biomass-to-energy (cogeneration) and a startup in green chemistry. These experiences enabled me to become an expert in European subsidies (H2020 and Green Deal). I then decided, with a group of experts in the environment and green smart cities (Climatopolis), to commit myself to defending the climate cause through science, innovation, education, startups and green buildings. I'm also CEO of the startup Crymirotech, which recycles plastic waste into monomers using the circular economy principle, a climate expert in the PACA region (CEDRE scheme) and a partner in the Solar Impulse Foundation.

The urgency to act is enormous.

We are already lagging behind in the fight against climate change and for this reason we must triple our efforts and commitments to accelerate the ecological transition.

I managed to transform frustration into positive energy and that's why I want to make people aware of the responsibility we have today to change the course of events to return to being in harmony with Planet Earth.L'urgenza di agire è enorme.

Siamo già in ritardo nella lotta la cambiamento climatico e per questo dobbiamo triplicare gli sforzi e gli impegni per accellerare la transizione ecologica.

Sono riuscito a trasformare la frustrazione in energia positiva ed è per questo che ho voglio sensibilizzare le persone sulla responsabilità che abbiamo oggi di cambiare il corso degli eventi per tornare ad essere in armonia con il Pianeta Terra.

European Climate Pact Ambassador representing the European Committee of the Regions in Italy

Mihail Caradaică, Ph. D, is a lecturer at the National School of Political and Administrative Studies, focusing on environmental policies and developing sustainable social and economic models. Since 2021 he is also the executive director of the Tomorrow’s Forest Foundation, a Romanian environmental NGO. Under his stewardship, the Foundation fulfilled its pledge of planting 1 million seedlings in Romania (achieved in April 2022). Since then, Mihail has developed the early reforestation programme into a more ambitious climate platform, targeting climate resilience in urban areas (tiny forests) or desertification and  food security (agroforestry plantations), and has successfully attracted new international partners in this endeavour.

I belong to an underrepresented community, so I know how important it is to take part in all the discussions being held, not only about the environment but about everything. As someone who is also learning about climate change, I believe that I have a pretty good idea of how to engage people who are unfamiliar with the topic. I think that we, as black people, often look at this discussion as something somewhat removed from our lives, because we are being targeted by structural racism in so many ways that immediately impact our survival, that we are not considering how the environment is also a key issue. I commit to making it visible for more and more people that look like me.

I am a mother of two kids that have taught me eating and growing your own food is extremely important. I also became more aware of all the waste we are generating by not thinking about where certain packaging will end up. I have learned to not buy things I do not need as we, as a society, are already accummulating too many things and at the same time do not have time for each others, for example friends and family. These basic needs are extremely important and I feel I need to pass on all the zero waste habits not only to my children but to more people.

The challenge humanity is facing has been established, an enormous amount of possibilities are available. Millions of people show their motivation to prioritize a healthier planet. We are ready for a Green New Deal. We are ready for the governments to finally join in. The EC is the best platform to lead this opportunity. I am willing to devote my energy as an ambassador for the best of tomorrow. For a tomorrow. I sincerely hope to be chosen as an ambassador so together, though the pACT we ACT.

I'm Natéo, I'm 15 years old. I love climate and geopolitics. I'm very interessed in technical side of the climate and way to improve the global warming.
