She first developed an interest in climate change during her studies in the School of Forestry in Greece. After completing an MSc in Environmental protection and management she was introduced to the exciting world of waste management and energy efficiency. She has just completed a collaboration with an environmental consultancy in the UK and currently volunteers with the Edinburgh Community Backgreens Association, a small organisation that tries to improve the environmental sustainability of households. She believes that people can change attitude towards climate change when they can see and understand the impact of their actions on the environment and is looking forward to negotiating ideas with local authorities and policy makers in Greece.

After completing his studies in journalism, he pursued a job with an environmental magazine, of which he is now editor-in-chief. This is an achievement that he is very proud of, as it has given him the opportunity to combine his ability to communicate with his passion for the environment. Now, his greatest personal and professional ambition is to improve the amount and the quality of information that Greek citizens are receiving on the environment. If such a thing were achieved, it would turn the discussion on the environment into a central public issue and oblige political and private stakeholders to face the issue in a more serious and urgent manner.
