“Anybody who has any sort of a platform should use it to spread awareness because the problem isn't that people aren't willing to help but that they don't know they can. I am at the beginning of my career therefore the number of people who can be informed by me might seem insignificant but the more of us know, the bigger the contribution that we can bring is. I am in ClimateKeys because I don't hear enough discussions on this topic even though it is one of the most important of our time. In my opinion all of us should focus on doing what is in our power to help, no matter how small it may be and I'm very happy that ClimateKeys has given me an opportunity to do the best I can right now.” (Masha Dragicevic)
