• June 2019
Gabby is a member of the Youth Council of the World Oceans Day (W.O.D.), which shares the mission to protect our oceans in schools to mobilize younger generations and adults with its ecologic message. Gabby wants to launch a call to action. Today we can’t leave only in adults’ hands the power to decide for the future. The ecologic disaster is urgent, it’s happening, now, advancing inexorably and will not spare anyone. The efforts made until now are not enough. We can no longer wait. From now on, we will have to accept the challenge and do our part. To fight this emergency has to become a priority for each one of us. The World Oceans Day is a call to action for all the generations that will have to face a world where seas and oceans are invaded by plastic. Gabby is well aware of the fact that change starts from the ground up, from everyone, from everyday acts, especially from the new generations that claim the right to grant themselves a better future.
