Winning Answer
I truly believe in the 5 R's, which is re-think, reduce, re-use, recycle and respect. Because I believe that as human beings, if we apply that to our everyday lives, we can make a change and we will reduce the problem that we have just mentioned. If we apply that to our everyday lives, I believe that we as humans can save the place we live in, which is our Mother Earth.
— Katherine Espín on the question: The Paris Agreement on Climate Change is a historic international deal that seeks to limit Global Warming to below 1.5°C. If you were elected as Miss Earth 2016, what would be your program to protect Mother Earth from Climate Change?
