Nikola Biliškov

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.
