As a freelance climate advocate and author, I dedicate my time to advancing climate action in schools through writing and lecturing around the conclusions in my book "Talk To Children About Climate". Because an educational system reform must be at the heart of building a sustainable, just and resilient society. A starting point is ensuring all countries offer science-based climate education, helping young people build emotional resilience and introducing students early on to collective action.

I am also the Co-founder of the citizen-led climate data platform, Klimatkollen (Climate Checker), aiming to provide citizens with relevant and actionable climate data to help advance the Paris Agreement and bring down emissions in line with science.

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.

As intersectional feminist and social activist at the Ban Ki-moon Centre for Global Citizens, I was working on the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG5 Gender Equality. As community builder and climate justice advocate at the Climate Reality Project Europe, I contribute to promoting a human rights, decolonial and justice perspective to the climate crisis. I am committed to creating meaningful and intergenerational partnerships that build bridges and foster solidarity.

I consider myself a concerned and caring citizen of the earth. As my duty towards my planet, I actively volunteer for environment and climate related events of Greenpeace Luxembourg. I am also an active member of Foodsharing Luxembourg, a group of concerned citizens on a mission to save any wastage of food. In 2023, I completed a one year Certificate in Sustainable Development and Social Innovation course at the University of Luxembourg. During this course I worked on citizen science projects with a peer group. I firmly believe that only with a mindset of sustainable development, we can help ourselves as well as the next generations to live in harmony with the ecosystem and stop more damage to our planet.

An entire career as an economic and environmental historian made me aware that strengthening the interaction between Academia and society is key to act on climate change. As President of Leonardo-IRTA, Research Institute of the environment and territories, I intend to fulfil my mission as Climate Pact Ambassador by signalling the climate added value of our projects on all occasions in which citizens and local to national institutions are involved (meetings, publications, online platforms).

I have been involved in climate action for decades. The first time I heard about climate change (specifically about rise of global temperature and related rise of CO2 level) was back to 1986, when my teacher told us about this. This not only ignited a spark about the importance of action, but showed me the key role of education and quality transmitted scientifically based messages. I have been involved in many climate-related campaigns to date, including having attended the crucial Paris COP. But I can say that only the appearance of the high school climate movement has shifted my climate activities into a higher orbit. This is when and why I decided to write a Plea for systematic climate action, which was. in a short time. signed by more than 550 Croatian scientists and then addressed to Croatian state institutions. Since then, I have primarily been working within the Scientists for Climate, an interface between science, NGOs and politics. Being an Ambassador will mean an extension of these activities. 

My aim is to create a activities database that anyone can open and easily pick a activity or a game related to nature and climate change for their children. Whether it is a teacher in primary school or non-formal educator, they should be able to quickly find all materials - rules, needed equipment and facts - in one place.

My activities will focus on supporting and engaging individuals and institutions for transformative action.

As a coach under Climate KIC and national coordinator for Climate education, I will mobilize local engagement, emphasizing the importance of climate education. Through my activities in national and supranational policy and NGO networks, I will advocate for the transition to climate neutrality, biodiversity actions, and urban greening. I will actively contribute to expanding future climate initiatives, focusing also on climate adaptation and promoting diversified (agri) cultural landscapes.

El cambio climatico es un problema que nos afecta a todos y a todos los niveles, es por ello que debemos actuar rapidamente.

Un sector de vital importancia es el sector agricola, donde los efectos repercuten directamente por cambios en la fenologia de cultivos y en el bienestar animal. 

A su vez participan en el problema y como posible solución al actuar como sumideros de CO2, uno de los principales gases de efecto invernadero.

Es por todo ello que es necesario la concienciacion en este sector.

Translation:

Climate change is a problem that affects us all at all levels, which is why we must act quickly.

One sector of vital importance is the agricultural sector, where the effects have a direct impact on crop phenology and animal welfare.

At the same time, they participate in the problem and as possible solution by acting as CO2 sinks, one of the main greenhouse gases.

It is for all these reasons that awareness in this sector is necessary.

I am a landscape architect and an academic from Bucharest interested in green infrastructure strategies and bioclimatic planning and design. As a Climate Pact Ambassador I would like to share and exchange knowledge concerning the role of green areas and urban biodiversity in climate change mitigation and adaptation in order to persuade public authorities, organizations and businesses to initiate climate action and pledges.

Climate and sustainbility have always been the guidelines of my life choices, from education to my professional activities. Working in water treatment, I've noticed the increasing uncertainty around the water ressource due to climate change and human activites. I'm deeply convinced the we should commit to a more sustainable approach in our daily life but also within companies and industries. Education and comminucation will be the key to raise awareness and make the shift in our habits.

For all lives on our planet it is imperative that humans put an end to global warming. No single person will make this happen, so we should all become a climate ambassador to some extent. Thus as a Dutch life sciences student with passion for politics, I didn't hesitate joining the Climate pact as soon as friends advised me to do so. I'm eager to help by advocating for more nuclear energy, an efficient EU train network and the reduction of meat production. Now as a student, one day as politician.

As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I will leverage my diverse experience across industry, policy-making, and youth engagement through my roles in the Danish Youth Climate Council, SAGA, WEF Global Shapers, Copenhagen Business School, and Topsoe (PtX). In the year ahead, I will focus on advocating for ambitious climate policies, representing youth in key discussions, and driving sustainability initiatives that create meaningful impact across both industry and public sectors.

I am a materials scientist working for a green future. As a passionate climber and bikepacker, I spend a lot of time in nature. This has made me realise how fragile our ecosystem is and that everyone has a duty to do their part to protect our planet. I try to do my part by researching sustainable energy storage technologies and promoting the importance of science and technology, especially in the energy sector. Not only among decision-makers, but also among the youth.

In my role as a Climate Pact Ambassador, I aim to empower and educate young people by equipping them with the skills they need to understand and address key issues related to climate change, energy and development.

Carlos is a sustainability enthusiast and a climate change advocate. He strives to contribute to climate dialogues and negotiations to implement highly ambitious goals. He was shocked when he first read an IPCC report and felt responsible to make a change.

Making use of several roles in these fields, Carlos wants to connect and empower people, focusing on those communities where he lives, the United Kingdom and Spain, to not only share ideas but to bring them to reality.

During my mission, I would like to draw attention to the vulnerability of Lake Balaton and other large lakes and their functional areas in Europe. As the Mayor of Balatonfüred and Chairman of the Lake Balaton Development Council, I am committed to improve climate awareness. By taking sustainability aspects into account, we can all do so much to protect our environment. The implementation of measures often does not require significant financial resources, just a different way of thinking is needed.

I have a degree in Climate Change Adaptation. I identify myself as a future member of the France Nature Environnement Association. As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I want to raise awareness of global and climate change among a large number of people, and organize actions to limit the vulnerability of the people of Seine et Marne to climate-related disasters.

I became aware of the Climate Crisis in 2009. Since then I have gained deep domain knowledge and formulated and built an IT framework to accelerate and incentivise emission reductions in the Non-ETS sectors.
