Quotes Pick what you are passionate about, read about it online, engage people in the same space and always know that the problem is that challenge you want to solve and it’s not a competition. I believe that the only qualification you need to conserve the environment is the fact that you live on this planet. I fight to protect the environment and I like to say I chose one master and that’s nature. I want to prioritize the climate agenda and have it as the first point of discussion before someone speaks about poverty eradication. I want to ensure we have discussions about how climate change is affecting other spheres, including water shortage or lack of access to clean and safe water, food insecurity, health and more. I believe the environment is at the center of economic development and social issues. I will not rest until these conversations are had in political spaces and the work is done.
