Climate change is the biggest threat to our civilisation.

I have been very interested in the subject since 1998.

Since 2006 our NGO Gorichka has spread awareness on the subject of the problems and solutions to the climate crisis. I am very motivated to continue this work with the weekly gatherings of the “climate anonymous” group.

Hi everyone. As a Climate Pact ambassador, I plan to advocate against climate change at a local, regional and national level through working with different organisations that campaign for climate action. My main motivation behind my campaigning is to leave behind a better world than I found, and to educate as many people as I can on how important it is to take care of the world we live in for as long as we can.
