Rencontrez nos ambassadeurs

I am a mechanical engineer with experience in renewable energy and IT. During my work at a major IT corporation, I gained hands-on expertise in energy efficiency and data-center energy applications. Through my thesis research, I developed a solid understanding of legislation, regulatory frameworks, and European initiatives aimed at strengthening reporting standards and combating greenwashing practices.

I am Roberto Cavallo, founding member of ERICA cooperative, a company active for almost 30 years in the field of environmental consultancy all around the world, both technical and communicative.

I founded the International Association for Environmental Communication (AICA) which since 20 years ago organises the international award called the Oscar of Environmental Communication and which manages the envi.info website.

In 2014 I promoted running by collecting waste with the Keep Clean And Run event, a discipline now known as plogging, which now involves millions of people around the world and I am the director of the World Plogging Championship.

Since 2018 on my social channels, I conduce #envinews, with which I comment on the main environmental news.

I am periodically a guest of RAI (Italian national public TV) to comment on environmental news or for in-depth information, in particular on the topic of the circular economy.

I will use all these channels as a Pact Climate Ambassador!

I am a dedicated educator with a deep passion for teaching Math and Physics. As a member of the Ministry of Education Territorial Training Team, a Mathematics and Physics Teacher at Liceo Scientifico Calini in Brescia, a member of Euclipa, a Scientix ambassador, and a volunteer at the digital editorial team of Missione Oggi Onlus, I actively promote digital innovation and implement innovative methodologies in schools. My commitment to the environment is unwavering, and I have a profound love for animals and nature. My professional experience spans a wide range of fields, including communication and multimedia, but my most significant and rewarding work is in education.

I believe in the power of education to drive change and inspire future generations. Through my work, I strive to integrate sustainability and technology into the curriculum, providing students with hands-on learning experiences that foster critical thinking and creativity. I am passionate about helping students understand the importance of environmental stewardship and the role that science and technology can play in creating a sustainable future.

In addition to my teaching and training responsibilities, I am involved in various projects and initiatives that aim to promote sustainability and innovation in education. You can learn more about our projects at https://www.ecomentality.it/

I am a greenfluencer. I believe that green modernization cannot happen without public support, which is why I use my social media to explain topics related to the climate crisis. I highlight the problems that the climate crisis brings, but primarily focus on finding solutions. My goal is to reach a wide audience by presenting these topics in an engaging and understandable way. The areas I focus on include decarbonization, nature conservation, and encouraging my followers to take personal action.

Sharing good practices. Connecting experiences. Let’s meeting at “All Routes lead to Rome”…

I'm Julien Challandes, an ocean lover. As a former diving instructor, I realised that my lifestyle was contributing to the destruction of living things. So I radically changed my daily habits. And I created Blutopia in March 2018. After 3 years of digging into every topic (plastics, finance, energy, transport), we decided to focus on food. As a Pact Ambassador, I will continue to lead actions for gourmet and sustainable food, including screening, school interventions or cooking workshops.

I am a climate change activist involved in various forums and expert groups with a focus on innovation and climate change to catalyse systemic transformation. My activities will focus on accelerating scalable and sustainable solutions through workshops educational activities climate innovation projects and seminars that promote a change of mindset in the way we live we move we consume and we produce taking into account the different perspectives of all stakeholders.

I am a medical doctor, researcher, and climate activist. I believe that, in order to meet the goals set in the Paris Agreement, we need to mobilise efforts across different sectors and within the community. As an Ambassador, I intend to develop citizens' initiatives on climate action, together with community members, so that we can bring it to Parliament and make a change. The development of conferences and awareness raising initiatives with social media can alter climate change course.

From a western literature major in university to climate literacy professional now, I act as a proactive and multi-lingual communicator and public speaker with personal focus in climate education and training by making impactful use of words.
