Ricardo Pineda is a lead researcher in the decarbonisation of Honduras and the founder of Sustenta Honduras, an NGO dedicated to connecting young people eager for ambitious climate action. In this episode, we discuss Ricardo's own call to action when he realised Honduras was failing to meet its decarbonisation targets, and the effect it was having on sustaining deep socio-economic inequalities in the country. Ricardo's inspiring journey from activist, to researcher, to policy writer is a fantastic example of what anyone can achieve with enough motivation and determination.
