Toby believes that Challenge Europe is such a great opportunity in that it allows the Advocates to collaborate right across Europe, pooling the best of the ideas to help us solve climate change. Toby enjoys learning about new cultures and talking with like-minded individuals about sustainability and climate issues, so to be able to combine both of these in Challenge Europe, to be able to listen to ideas for a more sustainable future coming from different cultural perspectives will be absolutely fascinating and extremely valuable for him and for the process of fighting climate change productively.
 

Featured Advocates



Agata Nagrabska - Due to her university degree, Agata has been interested in environmental protection, particularly in climate change for a couple of years. As a trainer she participated in the first edition of ZeroCarbonCity project conducted by the British Council. Then, on behalf of the British Council, she coordinated the second edition of the workshop. She was also a project coordinator of Climate Exchange addressed to a group of experts dealing with climate change. Besides, Agata was a member of the Polish team working for CarbonGame - Emission Trade project (www.carbongame.org). As a result of the project implementation, an Internet education tool was created concerning the trade of CO2 emission authorisations. Agata Nagrabska has graduated from the Inter-Departmental Environment Protection Studies at Warsaw University. She would like Challenge Europe's Climate Advocates to make Polish people change their way of thinking about climate change. She thinks one should stop perceiving climate change as a purely environmental/ecological problem and start thinking about it as a factor which will have a direct impact on people's lives and economy.
