In 2050 I’ll be 65. I’m an a child of the eighties, born in Australia, and I grew up with mobile phones, the internet and the UNFCCC. My interest in local events lead me to a degree in Environmental Studies and student life lead me to activism. As part of the Australian Youth Climate Coalition I attended the 2008 UN climate conference in Poznan, Poland. In an attempt to reduce the exorbitant emissions by flying to get there, we took trains and buses. After the conference, I migrated to the UK in 2008 and have been involved in climate campaigning ever since. I’m not just interested in trying to avoid the worst effects of climate change by doing the least, I'm all about getting the best out of life!

Stuff done:

  • Travelled overland from Brisbane to London
