Press release 28/4/21
For immediate release
Europe for Business is delighted to announce that its Managing Director, Mr Leonardo Piccinetti, has
been appointed as an Ambassador by the European Climate Pact Secretariat.
The European Climate Pact, launched in December 2020, works together with the European
Commission Directorate General (CLIMA) to motivate people and organisations to create a greener
Europe. The pact empowers people with knowledge and inspires EU citizens through events and
‘pledges’ to deliver science-based concrete actions and initiatives across a range of sectors, including
agriculture, power and construction industries.
The Climate Pact Ambassadors comprise 181 selected individuals who will champion climate
protection by engaging citizens, organisations and different entities to support climate change
actions. These Ambassadors will facilitate communications between citizens and the EC, and will
address the need for political intervention balanced with acceptance by people of their individual
responsibilities as consumers, travellers and by reducing their ecological footprint.
European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal, Frans Timmermans
said: “The European Climate Pact will bring together everyone who wants to take action for our
planet. With the Pact, we want to help everyone in Europe take action in their everyday lives, and
give everyone the opportunity to get involved in the green transition and inspire each other. When it
comes to tackling climate change, anyone can take action, and everyone can contribute.”
Leonardo Piccinetti commented: “This is indeed a great opportunity – I am honoured to be an
Ambassador of the EU Climate Pact and to support its efforts to transform the EU into a sustainable
and healthier society by bridging civil society, stakeholders and the European Commission”
