Lamiaa Biaz Ecological Journey

Founder of Captain Forest

Lamiaa Biaz

Founder of the Captain Forest movement

"I became deeply concerned about the environmental crisis and developed a passion for nature. As a result, I decided to leave my corporate career and change my habits. Since 2019, I have been living a plastic and waste-free lifestyle and have been involved in European projects focused on the circular economy and nature-based solutions. This led me to create Captain Forest, a platform to raise awareness about environmental issues through art and thoughtful conversations with international experts. We aim to educate people about the plastic, waste, and agriculture-related ecological and socio-economic crises."
