HONG KONG<\/span>, Dec. 8, 2021 \/PRNewswire\/ — EcoMatcher, a Certified B Corporation that plants trees for global organizations, has announced the appointment of its Honorary Youth Ambassador, a 13-year old student from Hong Kong<\/span>, Elodie Lambotte<\/span>. The new role seeks to foster cooperation between corporations and younger generations in relation to the climate crisis.<\/p>\n

Bas Fransen<\/span>, CEO EcoMatcher, said, “We live in the decade of action, and collective effort is required to address the biggest threat to humanity: the climate crisis. When Elodie contacted EcoMatcher, it became clear to us as a company that young people are under-represented and need their voices to be heard. As a social enterprise in the sustainability space, we have a responsibility to give Elodie and her peers an opportunity to be part of the solution in relation to climate change.”<\/p>\n

Elodie, originally from Belgium<\/span>, attends international school in Hong Kong<\/span>. She is passionate about sustainability and raising awareness for programs such as EcoMatcher, which serves as a platform for companies to improve their approach to sustainability while helping to tackle the climate crisis in a transparent and accountable way.<\/p>\n

After purchasing her own trees on the EcoMatcher website, Elodie, who is also a talented ventriloquist, contacted the company with a video she had created of herself and her “monkey” Jack. Upon receiving the video, Bas Fransen<\/span> and his team met with Elodie and her family to discuss taking her proposal of becoming an ambassador forward. Bas commented, “It’s interesting how much has changed over a generation. Kids want different things now; they want a future. Elodie’s “I Have a Dream” speech really struck a chord with the whole team at EcoMatcher, and we’re delighted to appoint her in this honorary role.”<\/p>\n

Elodie said, “I respect and admire young climate activists around the world, but I have a different approach. I want people to listen, but I do it by making them laugh, smile, and feel climate change is possible if we just all take a few steps together. So, I made the video with my ‘<\/span>monkey‘ <\/span>Jack, representing biodiversity. Through the ‘<\/span>I Have a Dream‘ <\/span>video, I want to express how young people and animals have a dream about a brighter and greener future and hope that company leaders get inspired and take action.”<\/p>\n
