Short biography
I am a former aviation worker who got tired of the empty climate pledges of the aviation industry and decided to work towards its decarbonisation. I am a graduate of the Tourism, Society & Environment Master at Wageningen University & Research where I researched the discourses about flying and climate change at KLM. My interests lie in the decarbonisation of the aviation industry through behavioural change and degrowth perspectives, as well as greenwashing tactics that work towards climate obstruction.
