image004.jpgDue 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.

 
 
 
Project Better Place developed from the realisation that vehicle emissions accounted for a growing portion of the world’s carbon footprint and the changing climate and diminishing supplies of fossil fuels required a major shift to low emission vehicles.
