What others say about our work
“I first met Johnny during substantive discussions with youth delegates at the COP. Thanks to his many years of experience at FFF and Bündnis 90/Die Grünen, he is able to provide in-depth analyses of the political situation with possible courses of action for the respective actors and regularly seeks substantive exchanges with other experts.”
“With his extensive expertise and political analytical skills, Johnny Stengel contributes to the work of the climate justice movement at the German and international level. With him, things get done! We at Climate Alliance Germany, of which GermanZero is a member, also benefit from this.”
“I got to know Johnny at COP27 in Egypt, which I attended as part of the EU delegation, working for the Chief Paris Agreement Negotiator Jacob Werksman. He impressed me very much with his expertise in national, international, and EU climate policy, his broad political network but above all with his great passion for environment and climate protection.”
