Marine biologist, eternal lover of the sea and cetaceans. I have been writing and been involved in communication on the themes of energy and the environment for 15 years, with the objective of making the concept of “living sustainably and reducing environmental impact” accessible to all, especially my children. I am editor responsible for content published on Behind Energy. I am particularly interested in renewables and climate change. I also collect boats, shells, stones – anything interesting I find on beaches – and enjoy hiking in the mountains.
