Newly-crowned Miss Earth 2017 Karen Ibasco believes that small thoughtful acts can effect a big change in the environment. In fact, it was her answer during the pageant’s question and answer portion, wherein she said that “as a global community, our micro-efforts will have a macro-effect to help save our home,” that sealed the deal. 

The medical physicist campaigns for the use of reusable, sustainable energy to reduce emissions in the atmosphere. 

“I believe that the real problem in this world is not climate change. The real problem is us because of our ignorance and apathy. What we have to do is to start changing our ways, to start recalibrating our minds and redirecting our steps,” Ibasco said in response to the question of who or what she thinks is the biggest enemy of Mother Earth.

In support of her primary advocacy, Ibasco also promotes walking and cycling as eco-friendly modes of getting around the city. “We can walk if the distance is near or just use bikes.”
