Michal Sabo is a Climate Pact Ambassador and a representative of Klíma ťa potrebuje (The Climate Needs You), the biggest climate-focused petition in Slovakia. The petition has 128,000 signatories and calls upon the government to declare a climate emergency, so that Slovakia can achieve carbon neutrality by 2040.
“I am seriously thrilled to be part of this initiative because it is no longer about orthodox activists; it is about regular citizens taking action. And that is exactly what we need – allies across society. I am looking forward to witnessing beautiful stories of commitment and inspiration, networking and cooperation.”
