Growing up in a coastal village in Papua New Guinea, Emma Oliver 🇵🇬 cherished the beautiful nature surrounding her. Her first-hand experience of the devastating impact of ocean pollution motivated her to address the climate crisis.
Through her organisation, ENB Sea Keepers, Emma is fighting back by restoring reefs, training the next generation of conservationists, and reviving marine life. Every action counts! 🌎
