I pledge to take bold action for a cleaner, greener future by supporting Sustainable Development Goals 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and 13 (Climate Action). I commit to reducing waste at its source through mindful consumption, reuse, and recycling.

I will advocate for sustainable urban systems that prioritize green spaces, efficient waste collection, and low-carbon practices. Through these actions, I aim to lower greenhouse gas emissions, protect ecosystems, and make cities safer, healthier, and more resilient.
